Kate Emma Boundy (1863–1913) was an English musician, considered by her contemporaries a gifted composer, many of whose small-scale works achieved considerable success in her lifetime. [1]

Life

Kate Boundy was born in Exeter, the eldest daughter of Mr. G.L. Boundy of Southcroft, Heavitree Road, Exeter. [2]

She was a student at London's Royal College of Music, [1] from where she obtained the associate diploma ( ARCM). [2]
