Still the fact that Mr. Thorley represented Eng- lish organ playing at the Paris Exposi- tion will doubtless interest those on the lookout for recruts to the organistic com- munity As Mr. Thorley himself says he is “cursed with versatility.” As others say he is blessed with unusual capacity in | several directions. Born into a musical | family, his father a contrabassist in the amo Halle orchestra in Manchesler, Mr. Thorley early showed musical ulty, appearing in public as a piani 8 years of age, and also as a boy so Then came his organ study, and further piano training with James Thorley, his cousin, and a distinguished planist. with Reinecke, W Richter, where gained the hearti commendation, both for composition plano work. Reinecke especlall scribes to his accomplishments, “‘with un usual joy,” as he guaintly puts it. .His Leipzig record obtained him the offer of a | sub-professorship of harmony at the Paris | Conservatoire (the position to be created t no. el, Jadassohn and young Thorley J.

However, the young men decided to go | cast in his | back to England, ar his native North. For twenty yvears he ned there, in the singular isolation ible in that tight little isle, playing in rt, writing and conducting symphon- s, with an orchestra composed of mem- bers of the famous orchestra of Sir Charles bis compositions being also fre- given in Manchester, and until ago, within three hours of Thorley’s name remained bsolutely unknown save to those of his grateful countrymen a fiv le rad was 1 us of Manchester. That a question of capacity w accorded to Mr. Thorley by his Lon- don critics on the occasion of his first ap- pearance before them in 1899 in the aoun:e role of composer and conductor. He made a second appearance In the same year, and possibly a quotation from Edward Baughan, perh: the most representa- tive London critic, will best show what | kKind of mar we now have among us. | Here is Mr. Baughan’s article: | _Until music is supported by our rich men we - 1l continue to witness the spectacle of a man uncommon talent coming forward at middle age to Give an orchestral concert in London | without ever having been heard of before. That is what Walter Handel Thorley did in the spring of this year. He then showed us he was | 8 composer of paris and a conductor of excep- | tional abllity. He proved the same thing again, | only_more conclusively, on Tuesday night at | St. James' Hall. As a composer he is excep- | tionally gifted; and if not a heaven-sent gen- | 1us has some quality greater than mere talent. | of RAJLWAY TB-AVEI.. i TO SAN RAFAEL, N ORTH | SAN QUENTIN, (SRS 1| L VALLEY, i CAZADERO, ETC.

But the crown of his work was in the last movement. The double basses dra- matically spiuttered out their recitative, and the choruses were sung with an overwhelming effect of climax, particularly the concluding chorus, *'O ye millions, 1 embrace you!" And the man who could dirsct 8o fine a performance has spent the bulk of his life up in the North He was one of the candidates for the vacant conductorship of the Philharmonic Soclety, and one may look on Tuesday’s performance as a sort of diploma exercise. I can say is that | It the post is ever again vacant it should cer- | tainiy “uultl not have to wait =o long for rlwu;,llllh)n to the loss of the musical art One hears that Mascagni is to return in October, and one can only hope the news is true.” But if we are not to have that brilliant and beloved voung genius, there is quite evidently a much more thui ordi- narily good conductor in this English- | man. Not that it is quite certain that Mr. Thorley will remain here. He is in the present grip of one f those wander- ing fits that make his e the inevita- ble colonists and is planning to belt the world before his return to England. He confesses that an appointment to the London Philharmonic conductorship or the like would change his plans, an¢ possibly a symphony engagement here might.” A concert in which Mr. Thorley will appear as a composer, in songs and compositions for violin and piano, is the early possibilities, Mean- will hear him as organist on thot fine new organ of which the university is so reasonably proud. @ il el @) YOSEMITE VALLEY.
