William Croft wurde am 30. Dezember 1678 in Nether Ettington in der englischen Grafschaft Warwickshire in eine wohlhabende Familie hineingeboren, die entfernt mit den Crofts von Croft Castle in Herefordshire verwandt war. Seine Stellung an der Chapel Royal, also in der königlichen Kirchenmusik, verdankte William vermutlich einem Angehörigen dieses Familienzweigs, und zwar Herbert Croft, der 1668–1670 Dekan der Chapel Royal war, und später Bischof von Hereford. Er nahm Unterricht bei John Blow und wurde 1704 außerordentliches Mitglied der Chapel; 1707 trat er als einer von drei Organisten der Chapel Royal die Nachfolge von Jeremiah Clarke an; außerdem folgte er seinem Lehrer ins Amt des Organisten der Westminster Abbey. Mit dreißig Jahren hatte Croft somit die Spitzenpositionen seines Fachs erreicht, und er verbrachte den Rest seines Arbeitslebens im beschaulichen Wechsel von Chapel und Abtei, nur unterbrochen durch gelegentliche Abstecher in die Kathedralen des Landes. Er starb am 14. August 1727 bei einem Kuraufenthalt in Bath.
William Croft was born on 30 December 1678 at Nether Ettington in Warwickshire into a prosperous family distantly related to the Crofts of Croft Castle in Herefordshire. William probably owed his place in the Chapel Royal to a member of this branch of the family, Herbert Croft, Dean of the Chapel Royal (1668–70) and later Bishop of Hereford. He studied with John Blow, and became a Gentleman Extraordinary of the Chapel in 1704; he succeeded Jeremiah Clarke as one of the three Chapel Organists in 1707, and Blow as Master of the Children in 1708; he also succeeded his teacher as organist of Westminster Abbey. Thus, Croft reached the top of his profession by the age of thirty and spent the rest of his career in an uneventful round of Chapel and Abbey, broken only by occasional visits to provincial cathedrals. He died in Bath, where he had gone to take the waters, on 14 August 1727.
'The Pauline acoustics are captured to great effect. The notes are helpful and texts are printed. With little competition this will fill a Croft slot on the shelf very satisfactorily' (Fanfare, USA)
'This is choral singing of the highest quality' (Choir & Organ)
