John Mundy (composer)

John Mundy (c. 1550 – 1630) was an English composer and organist of the Renaissance and early Baroque periods. He was the son of William Mundy, also a prominent composer.

Mundy served as organist of St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle from 1585 until his death in 1630. His surviving compositions include keyboard music, sacred vocal works, and madrigals.

His keyboard works are considered some of the most significant of the English virginalist school. They are characterized by their virtuosity and use of idiomatic keyboard techniques. Noteworthy pieces include "Fantasia," "Goe from my window," and a set of variations on "Happy are they."

His sacred music consists primarily of anthems and services for the Anglican church. He also contributed to the collection The Triumphs of Oriana (1601) with the madrigal "Lightly she tripped o'er the dales."
