| dbo:abstract | Harry Ellis Wooldridge (28 March 1845 – 13 February 1917) was an English musical antiquary, artist and Professor of Fine Arts. His music collections included transcripts of 17th- and 18th-century Italian music. He enrolled at the Royal Academy in 1865, becoming interested in early music at about the same time. He was studio assistant to Sir Edward Burne-Jones and later worked with Henry Holiday, the chief designer for James Powell and Sons, stained glass makers. Wooldridge was retained by Powell's and designed stained glass and tile paintings for more than twenty years. His church commissions included a reredos for St Martin's Church in Brighton (described as his chef d'œuvre), and the painting of frescoes in St John-at-Hampstead. His growing authority on early music led to his 1895 appointment, succeeding John Ruskin as Slade Professor of Fine Art at Oxford. His main contributions to music literature are a new edition of William Chappell's Popular Music of the Olden Time, which appeared under the title Old English Popular Music (1893) and The Polyphonic Period, parts I. and II. (vols. i. and ii. of the Oxford History of Music, 1901–05). Wooldridge edited the Yattendon Hymnal (1895–1899) with his lifelong friend, the Poet Laureate, Robert Seymour Bridges, with whom he lived at one stage at 50 Maddox Street in London. The Hymnal is regarded as "influential in the contemporary reform of hymnody and the revival of sixteenth and seventeenth century music". (en) Harry Ellis Woodridge, född 28 mars 1845 i Winchester, död 13 februari 1917, var en brittisk konstnär samt konst- och musikvetare. Wooldridge började som målare och var elev vid Royal Academy of Arts, men övergav måleriet 1894 och anställdes året därpå som professor i de sköna konsterna vid University of Oxford, där han uteslutande föreläste över målerikonsten. Från omkring 1890 hade Wooldridge även ivrigt bedrivit musikologiska studier och han kom att skriva en rad högt skattade musikhistoriska verk, däribland en omarbetning av Popular Music of Olden time (Old English Popular Music, 1893), vidare publikationer av gammal engelsk flerstämmig musik (Early English Harmony, 1896). Han var medredaktör vid utgivningen av Henry Purcells samlade verk; hans mest kända arbete är dock de två första banden (1901–05) av det store musikhistoriska verket The Oxford History of Music, i vilket han skrev om musikens historia till 1600.
