Timothy Swan (1758–1842) was a Yankee tunesmith and hatmaker born in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. The son of goldsmith William Swan, Swan lived in small towns along the Connecticut River in Connecticut and Massachusetts for most of his life. Swan's compositional output consisted mostly of psalm and hymn settings, referred to as psalmody. These tunes and settings were produced for choirs and singing schools located in Congregationalist communities of New England. Swan is unique as an early American composer in that he composed secular vocal duets and songs in addition to sacred tunebook music. The tunebook, New England Harmony is a collection of his sacred music compositions, while The Songster's Assistant is a collection of his secular music. Swan was also a poet and teacher of singing.

L'un des premiers compositeurs américains à avoir écrit de la musique séculaire et sacrée, il était également poète et professeur de chant. En 1776 il devient fifre dans l'armée continentale. Mis en apprentissage pour devenir fabricant de chapeau, Timothy compose sa première chanson, Montague, à l'âge de 16 ans. On le surnomme Hatter-Composer (littéralement «compositeur-chapelier» mais qui peut aussi se traduire par «compositeur-toqué»). Il décède à Northfield dans le Massachusetts. (fr)
