Edit ProfileCareer
Before filling several parochial posts in London he had been a choir boy at Saint George"s Chapel, Windsor and a pupil of Johann Christoph Pepusch. He received his early musical education in the choir of Saint George"s Chapel, Windsor. He afterwards studied with John Christopher Pepusch, and copied, according to Charles Burney, his style.
On Pepusch"s death Travers was bequeathed some of his musical library.
About 1725 Travers became organist of Saint Paul"s, Covent Garden, and afterwards of Fulham church. Among his pupils was Jackson of Exeter.
