Kate Emma Boundy (1863–1913) was an English musician, considered by her contemporaries a gifted composer, many of whose small-scale works achieved considerable success in her lifetime.

Life

Kate Boundy was born in Exeter, the eldest daughter of Mr. G.L. Boundy of Southcroft, Heavitree Road, Exeter.

She was a student at London's Royal College of Music, from where she obtained the associate diploma (ARCM).

In her later years ill health meant she was unable to walk and she made use of a wheelchair. She died while visiting her brother's house in Abergavenny, Wales. She was buried in the Higher Cemetery, Exeter.
