text: # Robert Wylkynson
  
  Robert Wylkynson (sometimes Wilkinson) (ca. 1450 – Eton after 1515) was one of the composers of the Eton Choirbook. Wylkynson became parish clerk of Eton in 1496, then in 1500 he was promoted to Informator - the master of the choristers.
  
  Only four works survive:
  
  * 2x Salve Regina
  * Jesus autem transiens/Credo in Deum à 13
  * motet O virgo prudentissima (fragmentary)
  
  But these works show Wylkynson to have been "an extremely ambitious composer and a more than competent one."
