This article is devoted to the biographical data of one of the most sig-
nifi cant English composers of the XVIII century — Thomas Augustine 
Arne (1710–1778). The information about the little-known composer 
who made a huge contribution to the development of English musi-
cal theater is based on a few sources and precedes the fi rst modern 
publication of the anonymous obituary in 1784, published in The 
Gentleman’s and London Magazine. The Russian translation is done 
by the author of the article.
Keywords: Thomas Augustine Arne, XVIII century, English music, British press.
