PREFACE 
 
 THE object of this book is to give as complete 
 a record as possible of the beginning and 
 progress of music in the United States of America. 
 
 The first things recorded are regarded as im- 
 portant. Hence such items as the printing of the 
 first book on music, the importation of the first 
 pipe organs, the establishment of the early musical 
 societies are recorded, while similar events of a more 
 recent date are of no special importance. 
 
 The first performance of significant works — 
 operas, oratorios, symphonies and other choral and 
 orchestral works — are chronicled as carefully as 
 possible J also the first appearance in America of 
 noted musicians. 
 
 It has been practically impossible to find accurate 
 data about the works of the older composers, — 
 Haydn, Mozart and others, for while there are 
 many programs in which their names are mentioned 
 the work played is seldom specified (see Mr. O. G. 
 Sonneck's " Early Concert-Life in America "), and 
 one must wait until the period arrives In which the 
 work performed is specified. Probably some of the 
 works mentioned had earlier performances by small 
 organizations but the performances recorded here 
 are in all probability the first adequate ones. 
 
vi PREFACE 
 
 Among the items recorded are some which cannot 
 be regarded as marking the musical progress of the 
 country, and yet are items of musical interest; — 
 the first performance of " The Star-Spangled 
 Banner " and of " America " do not mark any 
 progress and yet are historic events. 
 
 The establishment of Gilmore's Band and Sousa's 
 Band are items of interest rather than of educational 
 progress. 
 
 In compiling this work such newspapers as are 
 available have been consulted, also the programs of 
 the leading choral and orchestral societies. Valu- 
 able help has been gained from the excellent works 
 of Mr. Oscar G. Sonneck, Mr. E. H. Krehbiel, Mr. 
 Philip Goepp, Mr. George P. Upton, AUston 
 Brown and other writers on the American stage, and 
 above all from the admirable notes of Mr. Philip 
 Hale in the programs of the Boston Symphony 
 Orchestra. It would be ungracious to close this pref- 
 ace without acknowledging with gratitude the valu- 
 able assistance of Miss Barbara Duncan of the 
 Boston Public Library.

 Chapter I 
 1640- 1750 
 
 THE Annals of Music in America during the 
 first hundred years contain very little that 
 would seem to be of any importance to the musi- 
 cians of today. Nevertheless it is as interesting to 
 note the beginnings of music in this newly settled 
 country as to watch the appearance of the baby's first 
 tooth. 
 
 The first settlement at Plymouth took place in 
 1620, and we find that in 1640 the colonists were 
 already busy with the printing press in Cambridge, 
 Mass., and the second book which came from the 
 press was a reprint of an English Psalm book, printed 
 under the title of the Bay Psalm Book. This was 
 not an original work, but its production shows that 
 music was already a living problem, and was even 
 then part of the life of the colonists. 
 
 Practically nothing more of note happened until 
 the importation of the first pipe organ, in 170O. 
 This was quickly followed by other similar instru- 
 ments in different parts of the country, and even by 
 
2 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 the building of organs by Americans, the first being 
 by John Clemm in New York, which contained three 
 manuals and twenty-six stops, and the next by Ed- 
 ward Bromfield in Boston. Bromfield's organ had 
 two manuals and 1200 pipes, but was not com- 
 pleted when he died in 1746. 
 
 The early history of music in New England, as 
 handed down to us by writers on the subject, seems 
 to have consisted chiefly of church singing, con- 
 cerning which there were many controversies. The 
 early composers of New England were mainly occu- 
 pied in composing psalm tunes, and in teaching sing- 
 ing schools. 
 
 The accounts of secular music come chiefly from 
 Charleston, S. C, at Which place many musicians 
 entered this continent after visiting the West Indies. 
 In fact, the first song recital on record in America 
 took place at Charleston in 1733, while Boston had 
 a concert in 1731 and Charleston had one in 1732. 
 Charleston also claims the first performance of bal- 
 lad opera on record in America (1735). 
 
 It must not, however, be supposed that New Eng- 
 land had no secular music. The concert above men- 
 tioned goes to show the contrary. Also there is a 
 record of small wind instruments, such as oboes and 
 flageolets, being brought to Boston for the purposes 
 of trade — possibly with the idea that New Eng- 
 land shepherds might play to their sheep, as shep- 
 herds in other countries are supposed to do. 
 
 We know that every farm had its spinning wheel 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 3 
 
 and that clothes were made of the homespun wool- 
 lens, but neither historian nor poet has ever pictured 
 a New England shepherd with the shepherd's pipe. 
 Imagination has not so far run riot. 
 
 Music was in a very elementary stage during the 
 first hundred years. The country was sparsely pop- 
 ulated, and music depends on the existence of a 
 community. Even in 1750 the cows, according to 
 tradition, were still occupied, during their daily 
 peregrinations, in laying out the streets of the fu- 
 ture city of Boston, — a city which was destined to 
 be one of the leaders in matters musical. 
 
 Note. When a work is mentioned as " given " or " flayed " 
 or " fresented," it means the first ferjormance in America. 
 When " froduced " or " p-oduction " or " fremiere " is 
 used the first -public ferjormance anywhere is indicated. 
 
 1640. The " Bay Psalm Book " published, first American book 
 
 of sacred music. The second book printed in America. 
 1700. The first pipe organ to reach America from Europe 
 
 was placed in the Episcopal Church at Port Royal, Va. 
 
 About i860 it was removed to Hancock, and later to Shep- 
 
 herdstown, W. Va. 
 
 171 2. First practical instruction book on singing in New 
 England, published by John Tufts of Newbury, Mass. 
 
 1 71 3. First pipe organ brought into New England presented 
 to King's Chapel, Boston, by Thomas Brattle. (Now in 
 St. John's Chapel, Portsmouth, N. H.) 
 
 1720. First singing societies established in New England. 
 
 1 71 6. First mention of the importation of flageolets, haut- 
 bois and other instruments, by Edward Enstone, of Boston.

CHAPTER II 
 
 1750- 1800 
 
 THE first item of especial interest in this period 
 is the performance of the " Beggar's Opera " 
 at the " Theatre in Nassau Street," New York. This 
 theatre was a rather tumbledown affair and was not 
 built for the purpose. It had a platform and rough 
 benches. The chandelier was a barrel hoop through 
 which several nails were driven, and on these nails 
 were impaled candles, which provided all the light, 
 and from which the tallow was likely to drip on the 
 heads of such of the audience as had the best seats. 
 
 But three years later (in 1753) Lewis Hallam, 
 who had been giving performances with his company 
 in the more southern States, got permission to build 
 a theatre on the site of this old place, and the house 
 was opened in September with a play, " The 
 Conscious Lovers," followed by a ballad farce, 
 " Damon and Phillida." 
 
 In 1759 we find the first avowedly musical organ- 
 ization in America, " The Orpheus Club," was in 
 existence in Philadelphia, and concerts were becom- 
 ing more frequent. We also find a St. Cecilia 
 Society founded in Charleston, S. C, an organization 
 which lasted for a hundred and fifty years. 
 
6 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 Other societies followed at short intervals and 
 in Widely scattered localities; the " Handel Society " 
 of Dartmouth College, about 1780, the " Stoughton 
 (Mass.) Musical Society," 1786, and "The Musi- 
 cal Society " of New York City, all tend to show that 
 social centres were developing, and the people were 
 finding expression in music. 
 
 An indication of what had been growing by de- 
 grees is found in the reports of concerts. Mention 
 of instruments such as violins, French horns, oboes, 
 trombones, etc., was made here and there, and espe- 
 cially in connection with the Moravian settlements 
 in Bethlehem, Pa., where was established the first 
 music school. 
 
 We find the first mention of an orchestra made in 
 connection with a performance of " The Beggar's 
 Opera" at Upper Marlboro, Md., in 1752, and a 
 few years later (1788) a great concert was given in 
 Philadelphia with an orchestra of fifty and a chorus 
 of two hundred performers. 
 
 There is also a record of a concert given in 
 Charleston, S. C, in 1796, when an orchestra of 
 thirty instruments was employed in a performance 
 of Gluck's overture to " Iphegenie en Aulide," and 
 Haydn's " Stabat Mater." 
 
 It is quite possible that orchestras were used more 
 or Jpss in other concerts. Mr, Sonneck shows, in his 
 " Early Concert-Life in America," many programs 
 in which orchestral works are mentioned. And it is 
 well to state here that it is almost impossible to 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 7 
 
 locate the first performance in America of many of 
 the iworks of the older composers, including Haydn 
 and Mozart, because no opus number is mentioned, 
 nor anything to indicate the identity of the work. 
 Pleyel, Gluck and Clementi were much in vogue. 
 
 The American composer was beginning to be 
 heard from during this period. Francis Hopkinson, 
 who is generally regarded as the first American 
 composer, wrote, in 1759, a song with the title " My 
 Days Have Been So Wondrous Free," Some time 
 later, in 1788, a small volume of songs was pub- 
 lished under the title " Seven Songs," by the same 
 composer. 
 
 Francis Hopkinson was a well-educated man, a 
 signer of the Declaration of Independence, a mem- 
 ber of the Convention of 1787 which formulated 
 the Constitution of the United States, first Judge 
 of the Admiralty Court in Pennsylvania, and author 
 of many pamphlets and poems. 
 
 A man of entirely different calibre was William 
 Billings, who was considered the first composer in 
 New England. His compositions were chiefly 
 "fuguing tunes," and he published several psalm 
 books. 
 
 Billings was a tanner by trade, but a great musical 
 enthusiast and organizer. The Stoughton (Mass.) 
 Musical Society, which is the oldest musical society 
 still in existence, was organized by Billings. Lack 
 of education was no bar to his activities, and he 
 accomplished much with very limited means. 
 
8 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 It is said that Billings introduced the bass viol 
 into the services of the Church, and thus began to 
 break down the ancient Puritanical prejudices 
 against musical instruments. He was also the first 
 to use the pitch-pipe in order to ensure some degree 
 of certainty in " striking up the tune " in church. 
 
 Again, we find the first American ballad operas 
 during this period. Benjamin Carr, an Englishman 
 who had been in America a couple of years, pro- 
 duced in 1796 a ballad opera, "The Archers of 
 Switzerland," and, shortly afterwards, in the same 
 year, with Pellesier (a Frenchman of recent arrival) 
 as librettist, another ballad opera, " Edwin and 
 Angelina," was staged in New York City. Though 
 these works could hardly be called distinctively 
 American, they were the first composed and pro- 
 duced in this country. 
 
 During the last decade of the i8th century some 
 French actors and singers invaded the country and 
 made New Orleans their headquarters. From 
 that time on, for many years. New Orleans was 
 prominent in the production of French operas and 
 plays. 
 
 Theatres were built in several of the larger cities, 
 and noted singers began to appear from abroad. 
 The first of these appears to have been Miss Broad- 
 hurst, who appeared in Philadelphia in 1793, at the 
 Chestnut Street Theatre. She was closely followed 
 by Mrs. Oldmixon.

CHAPTER III 
 
 1800- 1825 
 
 IN 1800 we find the first mention of the use of the 
 bassoon. This was in Bethlehem, Pa., and it 
 seems to complete the list of instruments for the 
 average orchestra. Notwithstanding the record of 
 the importation of oboes, many years earlier, and 
 the f Ifct tJftt Graupner, one of the leading musicians 
 in Boston about this time, was, or had been an oboeist, 
 some historian has stated that even well into the 
 nineteenth century there was only one oboe player 
 in the United States, and he lived in Baltimore. 
 Surely this ipust be an error. 
 
 In December 1800 we find the first annual con- 
 cert of the Philharmonic Society in New York City. 
 This societf died in a few years, and in 1 820 another 
 Pftlharmonic Society was formed. This society 
 also dwindled, though it did not die, for in 1840 
 it was reorganized, and has ever since taken a lead- 
 ing part in the musical life of New York. 
 
 Many musical societies made a beginning. Few 
 lived long. But of those which lived perhaps the 
 most notfed is the Handel and Haydn Society of 
 Boston, formed in 18 15. This society gave what 
 was claimed to be the first complete performance 
 
 14 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 15 
 
 of Handel's " Messiah," but it is also claimed that 
 this was done in 1801 in the hall of the University 
 of Pennsylvania. 
 
 The Handel and Haydn Society also gave what 
 was called the first complete performance of 
 Haydn's " Creation," an honor which is also ascribed 
 to King's Chapel in 18 16, while portions had been 
 performed in 181 1 at Bethlehem, Pa. Thus it is 
 difficult to fix definitely the first performances of 
 many of the large works. In later days, especially 
 in the case of Wagner's operas, portions were given 
 at concerts long before complete stage performances 
 were essayed. 
 
 Another musical society which is in existence at 
 the present day, and which undoubtedly has had 
 much influence on the musical life of America, was 
 the Pierian Sodality of Harvard University, estab- 
 lished in 1808 by the undergraduates. 
 
 In Philadelphia we find the establishment of the 
 Musical Fund Society, which, for a number of years, 
 did much to promote good music in that city. At its 
 first concert, on April 24, 1821, Beethoven's First 
 Symphony was played for the first time in America. 
 Mr. Goepp gives us a full account of this and tells 
 us that the whole symphony was too severe a task 
 for an audience of that period, so the performance 
 was broken and diversified by vocal and other solos 
 between the movements. 
 
 New England possessed several musical societies 
 in 1 821, by which performances of oratorio were 
 
1 6 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 given. The Sacred Music Society was formed in 
 New York City in 1823 and lasted till 1849. So 
 it may easily be seen that, as the population in- 
 creased, musical societies were soon established. 
 
 Theatres, while not strictly part of the musical 
 life of the country, can hardly be separated from it 
 because they were the home of ballad operas, and all 
 musical stage representations. They were already in 
 existence in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia be- 
 fore the beginning of the nineteenth century, but 
 we find in 1 807, the opening of " Le Theatre St. 
 Philippe " in New Orleans with Mehul's one-act 
 opera, " Une Folie." This theatre being burned in 
 1 8 1 7, a new one, " Le Theatre d'Orleans," was 
 built and opened in the following year. This 
 theatre was the finest in the country at that time 
 and was the home of opera for a number of years. 
 The record of opera in New Orleans is incomplete, 
 but it is well known that New Orleans was the home 
 of French opera in America long before it became 
 popular in other parts of the country. 
 
 But America was gradually edging up to the time 
 of grand opera. Singers were arriving from abroad 
 and brought with them their ambitions. We find 
 that an English version of Rossini's opera, " II 
 Barbiere," was given at the Park Theatre, New York 
 City, in 18 19, with Miss Leesugg as Rosina, and in 
 1823 an English version of Mozart's "Le Nozze 
 di Figaro " was presented. Again in the early part 
 of 1 825, Weber's opera " Der Freyschutz " was pre- 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 17 
 
 sented, in English, at the Park Theatre, with Miss 
 Kelly and Mrs. de Luce in the leading parts. Similar 
 performances followed in other cities, and the coun- 
 try was thus gradually prepared for the real thing, 
 — grand opera, — in its native language. 
 
 While the record of items during the period 1 800 
 to 1825 is not very long it still shows considerable 
 progress. The people grew up in a country where 
 there was little musical cultivation, where there were 
 small communities, and where the struggle for exist- 
 ence had been the first consideration. They re- 
 sponded warmly to the efforts of the country singing 
 teacher, the choral society promoter, and later to the 
 producer of opera, and if history shows many 
 failures, it may be pointed out that these failures 
 could not have taken place if no effort had been 
 made. Perhaps efforts in many cases were prema- 
 ture. Also there was much to learn in the manage- 
 ment of masses of people. The virtues of a true 
 democracy are nowhere more necessary than in a 
 choral society.

CHAPTER IV 
 
 1825 -1850 
 
 DURING these twenty-five years the list of 
 items on record is far greater than during any 
 preceding period of similar time. Possibly this may 
 be accounted for by the greater facilities for travel 
 both by sea and land. Railroads were gradually 
 spreading out through the country, and helping to 
 develop distant trading stations into towns and cities. 
 Steamships were making the voyage from Europe a 
 more feasible adventure. We shall see this as we 
 proceed. 
 
 In what we may call the domestic side of music we 
 find the establishment of more singing societies in 
 all the eastern cities. There was practically no 
 "west" in 1825, but Chicago shows up in 1834 
 with " The Old Settlers' Harmonic Society." The 
 story of Chicago's early musical days may be read 
 in Mr. George P. Upton's book of reminiscences. 
 The remarkable part of it seems to be that Chicago 
 grew phenomenally, and today stands as a rival to 
 New York in all matters musical, although in 1825 
 Chicago was merely a trading post and New York 
 was already a city of some size. 
 
 The musical convention came into being. The 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 21 
 
 first is said to have been held at Concord, N. H,, in 
 September 1829. There is also a claim that the first 
 musical convention was held in Montpelier, Vt., in 
 1839 but this is not quite correct. It may have been 
 the first convention in Vermont. Musical conven- 
 tions became popular and frequent and are so even 
 to the present day, though the methods and matter 
 liave changed with the times. 
 
 Another item which may come under the head of 
 domestic music is the beginning of music teaching in 
 the public schools. This was effected by Lowell 
 Mason, as an experiment, in 1838. At the present 
 day chorus singing in the public schools has become 
 an important matter, and is almost universal. 
 
 In 1838 we find a Philharmonic Society in St. 
 Louis, showing that St. Louis was not far behind 
 Chicago in getting into the musical world. 
 
 In Boston an Academy of Music was established 
 by Lowell Mason in 1833. It had a large number 
 of pupils, and there was an orchestra in connection 
 with it, which gave several concerts. But the 
 Harvard Musical Association, which was founded 
 in 1837, seems to have been the chief propelling 
 power to orchestral music in Boston, until the for- 
 mation of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. In 
 New York the Philharmonic Society was reorgan- 
 ized and was, as it has been ever since, the most 
 prominent orchestral organization of that city. 
 
 In 1848 two complete orchestras came to America, 
 GungPs, which gave a number of concerts, chiefly 
 
22 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 of light music, and the Germania, which consisted 
 of a number of refugees from the German govern- 
 ment. These men gave concerts of a finer type 
 than_ had yet been given in America. Their career 
 as an organization was not long, and it ended in 
 disaster, but many of the members became prom- 
 inent in musical matters in various cities, and in this 
 way the Germania orchestra had a beneficial and 
 lasting eflFect upon music in this country. 
 
 In the forties began the stream of violin and piano 
 virtuosi which has continued in ever-increasing 
 volume to the present day. Ole Bull, violinist, in 
 1843, Vieuxtemps and Art5t, violinists, and Leo- 
 pold von Meyer, pianist, in 1844, were the first. 
 
 Perhaps the development of opera may be con- 
 sidered of greater interest than other musical items. 
 In 1825 Manuel Garcia arrived in New York, and 
 gave the first performances of Italian opera. In 
 his company were his daughter Maria, who married 
 one Malibran and remained in New York for about 
 two years. At the end of this time she left her 
 husband and returned to Europe, where she had a 
 short but very brilliant career. Young Garcia, the 
 son, who also sang, afterwards became one of the 
 greatest singing teachers in Europe, and invented 
 the laryngoscope. Pauline, who became Madame 
 Viardot, and lived to a great age, was too young to 
 participate in Garcia's performances in New York. 
 For many years she was one of the great singing 
 teachers in Paris. 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 23 
 
 Garcia did not stay very long in New York, but 
 he began the eflForts to present Italian opera, which 
 were continued by many others from time to time, 
 usually with disaster. Nevertheless, the history of 
 the period from 1825 to 1850 is full of first per- 
 formances of Italian opera. In 1848 the Havana 
 Company visited the United States, and was con- 
 sidered the finest company that had been heard until 
 that time. 
 
 In the same year Max Maretzek appeared in New 
 York and at once entered the operatic field, with 
 which he was prominently occupied during the next 
 period. 
 
 Before finishing the review of this period we must 
 not forget the production William Henry Fry's 
 opera, " Leonora." This was the first grand opera 
 written and produced by an American. It had 
 several representations, but does not seem to have 
 lived long. The same, however, may be said of 
 many of the Italian operas which were presented 
 during this and later periods. A careful perusal of 
 the list will show the names of operas long since 
 defunct, so far as the American public is concerned. 
 Yet there are many, which were first presented to 
 the American public in this period, and which are 
 as popular today as ever, — in fact no good opera 
 company can afford to be without them. Opera was 
 well started by 1850.

CHAPTER V 
 
 1850- 1875 
 
 DURING this period musical events moved for- 
 ward quite rapidly, and though there was a 
 pause during the years of the Civil War — from 
 1 861 to 1865 — after that time increasing energy 
 was in evidence. 
 
 Possibly one of the most significant events was 
 the establishment of " Dwight's Journal of Music," 
 in Boston, the first journal in America devoted 
 entirely to musical matters. It was published every 
 two weeks, and while the greater part of the space 
 was devoted to musical affairs in Europe, yet there 
 were letters and reports from various centres in this 
 country, which make the Journal something of a 
 history in itself. Moreover, John S. Dwight helped 
 very materially in bringing to the American people 
 something in the way of musical criticism, which was 
 sadly needed. Indeed, anyone who takes the trouble 
 to look over the reports of concerts and operas in 
 the daily papers of these times will be surprised 
 at the absurdity of the comments on the perform- 
 ances of the noted musicians. Ritter, for instance, 
 quotes a criticism of a pianoforte recital where the 
 critic was much pleased by a " double run on the 
 
 36 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 37 
 
 chromatic scale, in which the semitones were dis- 
 tinctly heard," With singers the chief point was 
 whether the singer of this season could sing louder 
 than the singer of last season. John S. Dwight was 
 the pioneer of musical criticism in America, — an 
 intellectual man, one of the noted band of idealists 
 who were in the " Brook Farm " movement. 
 " Dwight's Journal of Music " went out of exist- 
 ence in 1 88 1. Musical criticism has since become a 
 specialized art. 
 
 Musical societies were multiplying, — Cincinnati 
 and Milwaukee had them, and in Chicago the 
 "Philharmonic Society" was organized. In 18 50 
 also the Worcester (Mass.) " Festivals " began, and 
 in 1858 the Peabody Institute concerts, in Baltimore. 
 
 In 1858 the "Mendelssohn Quintet" was 
 formed, and for many years toured the country 
 giving concerts of a high standard, and doing much 
 to raise the level of musical taste. This organization 
 had its beginning in Boston, but it traveled so widely 
 that it may be said to have belonged to the nation. 
 
 Towards the end of this period the "Apollo 
 Club " was organized in Chicago, and it is today 
 one of the most excellent clubs in America. The 
 following year the " Cecilia Society," in Boston, was 
 organized and likewise still exists and flourishes. 
 But these are only a few. 
 
 The American composer was beginning to show 
 himself — perhaps not yet very brilliantly in com- 
 parison to the great men of Europe — but he was 
 
38 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 beginning to be heard from. William H. Frye, 
 besides his two operas, composed several symphonies, 
 which were played by Jullien's Band in 1853. Also 
 a " Grand Symphony "in 1855 and " The Pilgrims' 
 Cantata " by C. C. Perkins, were performed in 
 Boston, and we have record of an oratorio, " The 
 Cities of the Plains," by Dawley, in 1855. Apart 
 from these efforts the American composer seems to 
 have been inconspicuous. In fact there were no 
 facilities for the study of music or for the hearing 
 of music which could be compared, as a training 
 school for composers, with the musical centres of 
 Europe, so that the efforts of these earlier composers 
 may be considered, in some respects, presmature, 
 and prompted by energy and ambition rather than 
 by scientific preparation. 
 
 The story of grand opera of this period is one of 
 perpetual striving for the unattainable. In Chicago 
 the first performance of grand opera was given in 
 1850. Chicago is now a rival of New York in 
 matters of opera. 
 
 San Francisco heard its first opera in 1853. The 
 gold fever of 1849 drew people of all kinds to 
 California, and among them were musicians. Henri 
 Herz, the French pianist, reached California in 1 849 
 when the excitement was at, its highest, and he gives 
 an interesting account of his adventures. It may 
 also be well to mention here Signora Biscaccianti, 
 who went to San Francisco in 1852, and was there 
 more or less till 1864. Signora Biscaccianti was one 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 39 
 
 of the first American singers to achieve a measure 
 o£ success in Europe. She was the daughter of a 
 musician named Ostinelli, was born in Boston, where 
 she met with some success as a singer, went to New 
 York and thence to Europe. Another American 
 who was, perhaps, better known in her own country 
 was Miss Isabella Hinkley who appeared in 1861, 
 but another who appeared in New York in the same 
 year, became still better known and was prominent 
 for many years, Clara Louise Kellogg. Eighteen 
 hundred and fifty-nine was the year of Adelina 
 Patti's debut. 
 
 The list of great singers who were imported 
 during this period is long. We can but touch on it, 
 — there was Jenny Lind in 1850, then came 
 Marietta Alboni in 1851. Two years later Sontag, 
 and the next year Grisi and Mario. In 1865 came 
 Parepa Rosa, and in 1870 Christine Nilsson. In 
 1873, Maurel and Campanini. In 1855 Brignoli 
 appeared, and was for many years a great popular 
 favorite. 
 
 We find efforts in New York to promote German 
 opera. Operas by Germans — " Fidelio " for in- 
 stance — had been heard together with operas by 
 Italians, and others, but now Wagner came above the 
 horizon, and German opera began to mean Wagner. 
 So we find " Tannhauser " and " Lohengrin " in 
 New York in 1859, — quite inadequate perform- 
 ances according to the opinion handed down to pos- 
 terity, — but yet, performances. They were fol- 
 
40 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 lowed in 1862 by " Der Fliegende Hollander," all 
 worthy but inadequate efforts. Maretzek and Stra- 
 kosch were the chief figures in grand opera during 
 this period, but there were spasmodic efforts by 
 others which need not be recorded. 
 
 Pianists were not so numerous as later. Alfred 
 Jaell had apppeared and, in 1854, Dr. William 
 Mason returned from Europe and established him- 
 self in New York, but was not known as one of the 
 traveling virtuosi. He had a great influence in 
 musical education, for many years. Anna Mehlig 
 visited America in 1869. 
 
 In 1862 Louis M. Gottschalk, a native of New 
 Orleans, returned to America after a brilliant 
 career in Europe, and he appears to have been the 
 first American to have made a career as a piano 
 virtuoso. 
 
 Violinists were few in comparison to singers, — 
 Miska Hau'ser, Pablo Sarasate, in 1850, and Camilla 
 Urso in 1852. Then a space of twenty years with- 
 out any great virtuoso. 
 ^ An important matter in the musical life of 
 America was the establishment of conservatories. 
 There had already been the Academy of Music in 
 Boston, which enrolled twenty-two hundred pupils 
 the first year, but the conservatory idea appears to 
 have developed' just after the Civil War, for we 
 find in 1865 a conservatory of music established with 
 Oberlin College, in 1871 Illinois College at Jack- 
 sonville followed suit, and in 1873 Northwestern 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 41 
 
 University. In the meantime, in 1867, we find the 
 Boston Conservatory, under Julius Eichberg, the 
 New England Conservatory, under Eben Tourjee, 
 the Cincinnati Conservatory, and the Chicago Acad- 
 emy of Music, which became the Chicago Musical 
 College, — and in 1877, a couple of years after this 
 period, Syracuse University added a conservatory.

CHAPTER VI 
 
 1875- 1890 
 
 THE period of fifteen years from 1875 to 1890 
 was most certainly a period of progress. Not 
 only was the country growing rapidly in population 
 and wealth, but means of communication were much 
 greater and more efficient than in the preceding 
 years. The present writer well remembers a journey 
 from San Francisco to St. Louis, and on to Boston 
 in 1878, when there was one single track railroad 
 between Oakland and Omaha. Cheyenne consisted 
 of two rows of primitive looking wooden houses, 
 behind which were " anchored " many emigrants' 
 wagons, or " prairie schooners " as they were called. 
 Only a few years later (in the early eighties) 
 Colonel Mapleson visited Cheyenne with his opera 
 company, which included Patti and Gerster, and 
 wrote thus of the place: "Although Cheyenne is 
 but a little town, consisting of about two streets, it 
 possesses a most refined society, composed, it is true, 
 of cow-boys; yet one might have imagined oneself 
 at the London Opera when the curtain rose, — the 
 ladies in brilliant toilettes and covered with dia- 
 monds; the gentlemen all in evening dress. The 
 entire little town is lighted by electricity. The club- 
 
 64 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 65 
 
 house is one of the pleasantest I have ever visited, 
 and the people are most hospitable." 
 
 This account reminds the writer of a visit, not so 
 many years ago, to Oklahoma City where the ladies 
 resembled those of Cheyenne. There was, however, 
 but one gentleman, within the writer's range of 
 vision, in evening dress. And when Mapleson 
 visited Cheyenne Oklahoma was an Indian reserva- 
 tion. Thus has civilization advanced. 
 
 In 1875 San Francisco was already a good-sized 
 city, but almost the whole country between San 
 Francisco and Chicago and St. Louis has been de- 
 veloped since 1875. 
 
 In San Francisco we find the establishment of the 
 "Loring Club'" in 1877. But good music was 
 getting its roots in deeper in the East. In New York 
 the " Symphony Society " was founded by Dr. Leo- 
 pold Damrosch in 1878, and was followed in 1881 
 by the " Boston Symphony Orchestra," which was 
 established through the liberality of Major Henry L. 
 Higginson. 
 
 " The Music Teachers' National Association " was 
 also formed in 1876, and while it is not in the public 
 eye in the way that opera and concerts are, yet its 
 influence throughout the land has been very marked, 
 and has led to state associations, with their annual 
 conferences, and exchanges of views among teachers. 
 
 In the concert world we find the names of several 
 celebrities, — Rubinstein had visited America in 
 1872, and Hans von Billow in 1875, Moritz Rosen- 
 
66 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 thai m 1888, and Godowski in 1890. We find also 
 among the noted pianists who were first known here 
 in this period Arabella Goddard, Rafael Joseflfy, 
 Fanny Bloomfield-Zeisler and Josef Hofmann. 
 
 Some noted violinists also visited America, August 
 Wilhelmj in 1878, Ovide Musin, Teresina Tua, and 
 in 1888 Fritz Kreisler. But perhaps the most note- 
 worthy event was the appearance of Maud Powell, 
 an American woman, whose career placed her in the 
 front rank of violinists, and has but recently ended 
 with her death. 
 
 Of singers there were a great many, but most of 
 them appeared in opera. Of the Americans who 
 gained international reputation were Emma Abbott, 
 Alwina Valleria (of Baltimore), Lillian Nordica 
 (Norton), Emma Nevada (Wixom), and Charles R. 
 Adams. 
 
 Among the European celebrities who visited 
 America were Madame RudersdorfF, Etelka Gerster, 
 Scalchi, Marcella Sembrich, Amalia Materna, and 
 Lilli Lehmann, also Alberto Stagno, Max Alvary, 
 Albert Niemann, Francesco Tamagno. 
 
 This leads us to a short review of opera, and as 
 New York City was the headquarters from , which 
 numerous companies issued to charm the rest of the 
 country, a review of New York is practically a re- 
 view of opera for the whole country. 
 
 From 1850 to 1875 opera is said to have "flour- 
 ished on failure " chiefly under Maretzek and Stra- 
 kosch. Also, opera meant Italian opera, or at least 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 67 
 
 ppera in Italian. There were spasmodic efforts to 
 promote German opera, chiefly by Adolf Neuen- 
 dorff, who managed the German Theatre in New 
 York City from 1872 to 1883. In 1876 a Wagner 
 Festival was given in New York, and in 1878 
 there was a short and unsuccessful season given by 
 the Pappenheim Opera Company, during which 
 " Rienzi " was sung for the first time in America. 
 Theodore Thomas did much to prepare the way by 
 playing excerpts from the Wagner operas at his 
 concerts, but Dr. Leopold Damrosch in 1884 set on 
 foot a movement which, during the next few years, 
 brought to America several of the greatest German 
 singers, and gave to the public adequate representa- 
 tions of many of the Wagnerian operas. Dr. 
 Damrosch died in 1885 and his work was taken up 
 by Anton Seidl, who had been associated with 
 Wagner in the production of the " Ring " at Bey- 
 reuth. Under Seidl " Die Meistersinger " had its 
 first performance in America, in 1886; " Tristan und 
 Isolde" and "Siegfried" in 1887; "Die Gotter- 
 dammerung," in 1888, and "Das Rheingold " in 
 1889. Thus German opera was well launched in 
 this period. 
 
 To return to Italian opera, — Colonel Mapleson 
 invaded the United States in 1878 bringing with 
 him a good company of singers. He did not go 
 farther west than St. Louis. Several tours followed 
 in succeeding years. During his third tour he gave 
 the first performance in America of Boito's " Me- 
 
68 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 fistofele," with Campanini, Valleria, Cary and 
 Novara. About this time he found a strong com- 
 petitor in Henry E. Abbey, who secured Nilsson 
 as a counter-attraction to Patti who was under Maple- 
 son. This competition caused Mapleson to proceed 
 farther west, so he led his company as far as San 
 Francisco, where he appears to have taken the town 
 by storm, and, if his account is correct, the march in 
 " Aida " was performed by six hundred of the State 
 militia and he had the assistance of a military band 
 and an extra chorus of three hundred and fifty voices. 
 But Mapleson's enterprises were beset with diffi- 
 culties and finally ended in disaster, although not 
 for some years. To many people, who can remem- 
 ber the rivalry between Abbey and Mapleson in the 
 eighties, when Patti, Gerster, Sembrich, Scalchi, 
 Nilsson, Annie Louise Cary, Campanini, Ravelli and 
 del Puente were in their prime, these were the days 
 of Italian opera in America. Probably much was 
 lacking in the stagijig and scenery, but the singers 
 have been unsurpassed. 
 
 Before closing the review of this period we come 
 to that which is of immense importance in the de- 
 velopment of music in America, viz. the appearance 
 of a number of composers who have taken high rank 
 among the composers of the world; — John K. 
 Paine, whose first symphony was produced in 1875, 
 was followed shortly by Arthur Bird, George W. 
 Chadwick, Horatio Parker, Harry Rowe Shelley, 
 Dudley Buck and Edward A. MacDowell.

CHAPTER VII 
 
 1890— 1900 
 
 THE decade covered in this chapter was remark- 
 able for progress in many directions. 
 
 Large orchestras were established all over the 
 country — Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, San Francisco, 
 Los Angeles, widely scattered cities, were among 
 those which made serious efforts in the orchestral 
 line, and performed large orchestral works. 
 
 America became in a still greater degree the hunt- 
 ing ground of the musical star who came from 
 Europe, and swept the country of its loose dollars, 
 appearing both as soloist with these orchestras, and 
 giving recitals in the various cities. 
 
 Among pianists we had Busoni, who was, for a 
 time, resident in Boston, Vladimir de Pachmann, the 
 great interpreter of Chopin, who was immensely 
 popular for some twenty-five years, and Paderewski, 
 whose progress through the country was marked by 
 previously unheard of demonstrations. It is said 
 that thousands of people traveled many miles to 
 see the train pass in which he was traveling. Alfred 
 Reisenauer came in 1895, Slivinski, Alberto Jonas, 
 Raoul Pugno, Siloti and Dohnanyi, were among 
 those who made their first appearances in America 
 during this decade.

 There was also a large list of violin virtuosi begin- 
 ning with Adolf Brodsky, who was followed by 
 Henri Marteau, Cesar Thomson, Ondriczek, Bur- 
 mester, Halir, Gregorovitch, Marsick, Maud Mac- 
 Carthy, Petschnikof and Madame Nermann Neruda, 
 who had been prominent in England for many years, 
 and was long past her prime when she visited 
 America. But the greatest artist of all was Eugen 
 Ysaye, who first appeared in 1894, and who, since 
 the great war, has been conductor of the Cincinnati 
 Orchestra. 
 
 Opera continued to flourish on misfortune. 
 Henry Abbey, who had ruined himself in driving 
 out Mapleson, formed a partnership with John B. 
 Schoeffel and Maurice Grau, and for some years 
 provided opera for the country. Signer Luigi Arditi, 
 who first appared as conductor of the Havana Com- 
 pany in about 1848, and had seen more operatic 
 service in America than any other conductor, made a 
 brief but interesting estimate of the impresarios 
 under whom he had traveled during those years. " I 
 have come to the conclusion," he writes, " that Don 
 Francesco Marty (of the Havana Company) was 
 the most generous of men, and Max Maretzek the 
 cleverest. Colonel Mapleson was decidedly the 
 astutest of all directors, . . . while to Henry Abbey 
 must be attributed every straightforward and honor- 
 able quality. Maurice Grau was the cleverest of 
 entrepreneurs?* 
 
 Among the singers brought here by this combina- 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 97 
 
 tlon was Tamagno, who appeared in 1890. The 
 following season came Jean and Edouard de Reszke, 
 who reigned supreme for a number of years. Also 
 two American singers who had made reputations 
 abroad, — Emma Eames and Marie van Zandt. 
 In 1893 Nellie Melba and Emma Calve camej 
 and in 1894 Pol Plangon. In 1896 the Abbey and 
 Grau combination collapsed. Abbey died soon after, 
 and Grau continued alone until 1903. 
 
 In 1895 Walter Damrosch made an effort, which 
 extended over several years, to reestablish German 
 opera, at the Metropolitan Opera House. This 
 house, by the way, had been burned down in 1892, 
 but was rebuilt and opened again in the following 
 year. Several new singers were brought over from 
 Germany, among them being Johanna Gadski. 
 
 In 1897 and 1898 Walter Damrosch joined forces 
 with Charles A. Ellis, the manager of the Boston 
 Symphony Orchestra, who had already been manag- 
 ing a company of which Melba was the star. 
 
 -In 1896 Ernestine Schumann-Heink made her 
 first American appearance in Chicago, and the fol- 
 lowing year joined the Metropolitan Company. 
 Also Milka Ternina, an excellent artist, made her 
 first appearance in Boston. 
 
 In 1898 Maurice Grau was the leading operatic 
 impresario once more and introduced several new 
 singers, including Marie Brema, Suzanne Adams, an 
 American, and Marie Engle, also in 1900 another 
 American, Louise Homer, while of the men Albert

 Alvarez, a French tenor, and Antonio Scotti, an 
 Italian baritone, were the most brilliant stars. 
 
 Italian opera was now being pushed hard by 
 German opera, while French opera was very little 
 heard. The table of performances published in New 
 York at the end of the season 1900— 190 1 shows 
 that Wagner had thirty-four performances out of 
 a total of eighty-six. Gounod was next with twelve 
 performances, Verdi with eight, Puccini with eight, 
 Meyerbeer with five, Mascagni with four, Reyer and 
 Massenet three each, Boito, Mozart and Donizetti 
 two each, and Beethoven, Leoncavallo and Bizet 
 one each. 
 
 American composers were seeking new themes 
 indigenous to the soil. Many had already written 
 something under the title of " Rip van Winkle," 
 and Walter Damrosch had brought out an opera 
 based on Hawthorne's novel " The Scarlet Letter." 
 Anton Dvorak composed his " New World Sym- 
 phony " making use of negro melodies for his 
 themes. The resources of the Indians, the prairies 
 and the mountains have been tapped more or less 
 successfully. The oil fields still offer a thrilling 
 subject for the composer. 
 
 1890. Jan. 4. Peter Cornelius's opera "Der IBarbier von

CHAPTER VIII 
 
 1900 
 
 THE first decade of the twentieth century was 
 noteworthy for the establishment of orchestras 
 throughout the land. During the nineteenth cen- 
 tury the development of the resources of the coun- 
 try and the increase of its wealth and population 
 was phenomenal. In 1900 the population of the 
 United States was about seventy-five millions. 
 Chicago, which was practically non-existent in 1800, 
 had a population of about two millions and was 
 already a rival of New York. Railroads, unknown 
 at the beginning of the nineteenth century, had 
 covered the country with a network of communica- 
 tions and caused the growth of large cities in places 
 far remote from the civilization of the year 1 800. 
 
 We find Minneapolis establishing an orchestra in 
 1902, St. Paul in 1905, New Orleans in 1906, 
 Seattle in 1908, while the Symphony Society of 
 New York was reorganized in 1905, and a Russian 
 Symphony orchestra established in New York City. 
 The term " Symphony Orchestra " has been univer- 
 sally adopted, till we have symphony orchestras even 
 in the moving picture houses. In Grove's Dictionary 
 
 117 
 
ii8 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 (edition of 1890) the only symphony orchestra 
 mentioned is " the Boston Symphony Orchestra," 
 though the " Symphony Society " of New York is 
 also listed. It seems then that the term " sym- 
 phony " applied to an orchestra is an American 
 . qualification signifying complete equipn^ent, and at 
 least good intentions. 
 
 During this period the New York Philharmonic 
 Society adopted the plan, for three successive years, 
 of engaging visiting, or guest conductors, and in this 
 way a number of the most prominent European 
 conductors were introduced to the American public. 
 
 A few American composers emerged, and of them 
 the most frequently found were Frederick S. Con- 
 verse and Henry K. Hadley, of whose works several 
 were produced by the leading orchestras and opera 
 companies. 
 
 The list of virtuosi is also long. Among pianists 
 Harold Bauer and Ossip Gabrilovitsch appeared in 
 1 900, and later came Rudolf Ganz, Josef Lhevinne, 
 Katherine Goodson, and Serge Rachmaninof. 
 Among violinists, Kubel'ik, Kocian, Hugo Heerman, 
 Jacques Thibaud, Efrem Zimbalist and Arthur 
 Spalding, only the last being of American birth. 
 
 The list of singers is long, and is chiefly associated 
 with opera. Louise Homer, an American, made her 
 debut in 1900, and Geraldine Farrar, another 
 American, in 1906. Among other noted singers we 
 find, Lucienne Breval, Caruso, Fremstad, Tetraz- 
 zini, Bonci, Renaud, Chaliapine, Morena, Destinn, 
 
ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 119 
 
 Mary Garden, John McCormack, Edouard Clement, 
 and Slezak, — samples of many nationalities. 
 
 This brings us to the opera. Maurice Grau re- 
 signed from the directorship of the Metropolitan 
 Opera House in 1903. Grau brought the star 
 system to a climax, and gave opera with " all star 
 casts," but few new operas were presented under his 
 management. In 1903 Heinrich Conried succeeded 
 to the management of the Metropolitan Opera 
 House, and set himself to work to abolish the star 
 system, as far as possible, and produce a good en- 
 semble. The abolition of the star system proved 
 an impossibility, because people had been fed upon 
 it since the musical life of the country began, and 
 New York audiences would not go to hear singers 
 who had not already made European reputations. 
 But Mr. Conried succeeded in producing many works 
 new to the American public. Of these " Parsifal " 
 stands forth conspicuously, though he found a com- 
 petitor in Henry W. Savage, who produced " Parsi- 
 fal " in English a few days in advance of Mr. 
 Conried's production. This was followed in 1906 
 by Strauss's "Salome." Conried died in 1908 and 
 was succeeded by the dual control of Signor Gatti- 
 Casazza and Andreas Dippel, but Dippel soon re- 
 signed and went to Chicago, and from that date until 
 the present (1922) Signor Gatti-Casazza has been 
 sole manager of the Metropolitan Opera House. 
 
 In 1906 Oscar Hammerstein opened the Man- 
 hattan Opera House in New York City and instituted 
 
120 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 
 
 a strong rivalry with the Metropolitan. He brought 
 to America some excellent singers and presented 
 many works new to the American public. While 
 the Metropolitan company gave more German than 
 French or Italian opera, the Manhattan seemed to 
 tend towards a preponderance of French opera. The 
 rivalry was beneficial to the public if not to the stock- 
 holders. 
 
 We find during this period an opera, " The Pipe 
 of Desire," by Frederick S. Converse, the first 
 American opera to be presented at the Metropolitan 
 Opera House. All the principals, with one excep- 
 tion, were also of American birth, — Louise Homer, 
 Riccardo Martin, Clarence Whitehill and Herbert 
 Witherspoon. The other principal was Lenora 
 Sparks, an English singer. 
 
 The most notable feature of the decade seems to 
 have been the spread of musical enterprise through- 
 out the country. Distant cities were organizing 
 choral societies and orchestras to a greater extent 
 than ever before. It is necessary not only to develop 
 composers, support a few fine orchestras and pro- 
 duce a few operas, but the nation must grow musi- 
 cally as a whole. The support given to musical 
 enterprise depends on the education of the rising 
 generation, and must begin with the schools.
