William Corkine (fl. 1610-1617) was an English composer, lutenist, gambist, and lyra viol player of the Renaissance. Corkine was in private service in the second decade of the seventeenth century, before travelling to Poland in 1617. He published a first book of Ayres to Sing and Play to the Lute and Basse-Viollin in 1610, and in 1612 a Second Booke of Ayres, some to sing and play to the Basse-Violl alone: others to be sung to the Lute and Bass Viollin. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Willia
