PREFACE

object of this book is to give as complete
JL a record as possible o 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 -arc chronicled as carefully as
possible; 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.
Sonncck'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 5
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. PL Krchbiel, Mr.
Philip Goepp, Mr. George P. Upton, Allston
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.

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.

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/ 7 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 a 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 " Iphegcnic en Aulide," and
Haydn's " Stabat Mater."

It is quite possible that orchestras were used more
or less in other concerts. Mr. Sonneck shows, in his
a 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

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 Clement! 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
a 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, a 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 ia 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 fact that 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 must be an error.

In December 1800 we find the first annual con-
cert of the Philharmonic Society in New York City.
This society died in a few years, and in 1820 another
Philharmonic 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 noted is the Handel and Haydn Society of
Boston, formed in 1815. This society gave what
was claimed to be the first complete performance

14

ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 15

of Handel's " Messiah, 5 ' 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 1816, while portions had been
performed in 1811 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 1821, 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 MehuPs one-act
opera, " Une Folie." This theatre being burned in
1817, 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, u 11
Barbiere," was given at the Park Theatre, New York
City, in 1819, with Miss Leesugg as Rosina, and in
1823 an English version of Mozart's "Le Nozzc
di Figaro " ( was presented. Again in the early part
of 1825, Weber's opera " Der Freyschutz ?? was pro-

ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 17

seated, 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
have 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 1 848 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 effect 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 Artot, 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 o 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 efforts 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
1861 to 1865 after that time increasing energy
was in evidence.

Possibly one of the most significant events was
the establishment of " D wight'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

chroimatic 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 1850
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

3 8 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, premature,
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 ia
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 1849
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
of 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, Q^t 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/ 5 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 1 have made a career as a piano
virtuoso.

Violinists were few in comparison to singers,
Miska Hauser, 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 1 877, a couple of years after this
period, Syracuse University added a conservatory.

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 - y 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-

6 4

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 a 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 3 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 Joseffy,
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 Marctzek and Stra-
kosch. Also, opera meant Italian opera, or at least

ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA 67

opera 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 18865 " Tristan und
Isolde" and "Siegfried" in 18875 "Die Cotter-
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, Gary 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 Gary, Campanini, Ravelli and
del Puente were in their prime, these were the days
of Italian opera in America. Probably much was
lacking in the staging 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 Normann 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,
SchoeflFel and Maurice Grau, and for some years
provided opera for the country. Signor 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

tion 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 came;
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

98 ANNALS OF MUSIC IN AMERICA

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 1900-1901 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 Do'nizetti
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 cc Rip van Winkle,"
and Walter Damrosch had brought out an opera
based on Hawthorne's novel a 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 [Barbier von.
Bagdad " presented at the Metropolitan Opera House, New
York City, under Walter Damrosch, also J. Bayer's ballet

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 1800.

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

u8 AXXALS 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 equipment, 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
1900, 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 Conned 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.
Conned J s production. This was followed in 1906
by Strauss's " Salome." Conried died in 1908 and
was succeeded by the dual control of Signer 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.
