Edward Purcell (Londres, 1689 - ídem, 1740) fou un compositor i organista londinenc. Purcell va néixer a Westminster, Londres, l'únic fill supervivent del mestre del barroc anglès Henry Purcell, que va morir el 1695 quan Edward era un nen petit. Quan la seva mare Frances va morir el febrer de 1706, va declarar en la seva voluntat i, segons sembla, segons els desitjos del seu marit, que li havia donat una bona educació. També li va deixar llegenda música i instruments: "l'òrgan, el doble filat, el filat únic"; possiblement els instruments que el seu marit havia utilitzat. Edward es va convertir en organista de "St. Clement Eastcheap", a Londres a la fi de 1711, una posició que va mantenir durant la resta de la seva vida. No va tenir èxit en els seus intents de succeir al seu oncle Daniel Pu rdf:langString
Edward Purcell (1689–1740) was an English organist and composer. Purcell was born in Westminster, London, the only surviving son of English Baroque master Henry Purcell, who died in 1695 when Edward was a small child. When his mother Frances died in February 1706, she stated in her will, and apparently in accordance with her husband's wishes, that she had given him a good education. She also bequeathed to him music and instruments: "the organ, the double spinnet, the single spinnet"; possibly the instruments her husband had used. rdf:langString

No va tenir èxit en els seus intents de succeir al seu oncle Daniel Purcell com a organista de "St. Andrew's", Holborn, el 19 de febrer de 1718 i de nou el 3 d'abril de 1719. Finalment es va convertir en organista a "St. Margaret's", Westminster, el 8 de juliol de 1726, simultàniament amb el seu lloc a Eastcheap. En 1739, l'any anterior a la seva mort, va ser un dels membres fundadors de la societat benèfica dels músics amb seu a Londres, coneguda llavors com la Societat dels Músics (més tard es convertiria en la "Royal Society of Musicians"). Va ser enterrat a "St. Clement Eastcheap", prop de la porta de la galeria d'òrgues, i va ser succeït com a organista allà pel seu fill Edward Henry (1716 - 1765). Edward Purcell va publicar dues cançons, tot i que els cants de salm que se li atribueixen semblen creats per un homònim anterior, potser el seu oncle.

Edward became organist of St Clement Eastcheap, in London at the end of 1711, a position he retained for the rest of his life. He was unsuccessful in his attempts to succeed his uncle Daniel Purcell as organist of St Andrew's, Holborn, on 19 February 1718 and again on 3 April 1719. He eventually became organist at St. Margaret's, Westminster, on 8 July 1726, concurrent with his post at Eastcheap. In 1739, the year before his death, he was one of the founder-members of the London-based musicians' benevolent society then known as the Society of Musicians (later to become the Royal Society of Musicians). He was buried in St Clement Eastcheap near the organ gallery door, and was succeeded as organist there by his son Edward Henry Purcell (d. 1765). Edward Purcell published two songs, though the psalm chants often attributed to him seem to be by an earlier namesake, perhaps his uncle Edward.
