		The son of the distinguished viola player Frank Henry Howard and an artist mother, Michael Howard was educated at Ellesmere College, where his resistance to mathematics precluded entry to Oxbridge — the usual route for aspiring cathedral organists.
		Although Howard relied more on instinct than hardcore musicology to guide him through tricky problems of performance practice, these memorable renditions still repay close scrutiny, not least through a winning combination of clarity and commitment not always a feature of early music practice even today.
		During his final years Howard lived quietly in Sussex, but continued to campaign vigorously on behalf of the Campaign for the Defence of the Traditional Cathedral Choir, of which he was a vice-president.
