. "Blake, Benjamin"@en . "Benjamin Blake (born 22 February 1751, in Hackney, London; died in London 1827) was an English violinist, viola player and composer.Most of what is known about him comes from information he supplied for Sainsbury\u2019s dictionary in 1824. As a boy he was taught the violin by Anton\u00EDn Kammel, and later by Wilhelm Cramer, leader of the Italian Opera orchestra at the King\u2019s Theatre. Blake himself played the violin in this orchestra from about 1775, and also at the Concert of Ancient Music."@en . "British musician" . "1751-02-22Z"^^ . . "1827Z"^^ . "1751Z"^^ . .
