Oxford DNB online, Apr. 19, 2010 (Coprario, John (d. 1626), composer and musician, was, despite his name, evidently of English descent; in 1625, Charles made Coprario his composer-in-ordinary, but this appointment, the climax of his career, was short-lived. He was replaced by Alfonso Ferrabosco the younger in July 1626 'in the place of John Copreario deceased' (Charteris, John Coprario): his death, in London, must have occurred about June of that year.)
