THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
THE LONDON TRIO.
A MONG the noted organizations sched-
uled to visit us next season is the Lon-
don Trio. The artists making up this trio
occupy a very high standing in the mu-
sical world by virtue of their individual abil-
ities. They have long been organized on a
permanent basis like such established trios
as "The Berlin Trio," "The Frankfort Trio,"
"The Parisian Trio," etc., etc. The object of
able precision and finish. It is, therefore,
on these lines (of equal importance in a
trio) that the members of the London Trio
are desirous of presenting to music-lovers
a well-chosen repertoire in this particular
branch, drawn from both the classical and
the romantic schools. The repertoire of the
London Trio comprises all of the standard
works written for instrumental trios, and
new compositions of importance will be pro-
duced as they are published.
A vocalist may be selected and engaged
in conjunction with the London Trio, and
as each member of the trio is a distinguished
soloist on his respective instrument, an ad-
mirable program may be drawn up by en-
gaging the London Trio (with or without
a vocalist) exclusive of any other artists,
if desired.
The personnel of the London Trio include:
MME. AMINA GOODWIN,
Solo pianist of the Crystal Palace Sat-
urday Orchestral Concerts, Henschel's Lon-
don Symphony Concerts, London Musical
Society, St. James' Hall Concerts, Promen-
ade Concerts (Covent Garden), London
Queen's Hall Concerts, Manchester Gentle-

the London Trio is to present the highest
class of music written in the trio form in
the artistic manner that might be expected
from a trio whose members are in frequent
association and practice; thus they gain the
musical sympathy, balance of tone and unity
of expression which are almost impossible'
to achieve when a trio consists of different
artists who come together on occasion, with
only few rehearsals before a performance.
This is, fortunately, not the case with sev-
eral fine string quartets which we often
listen to with true pleasure and repose, as
the members are constantly working to-
gether, and consequently play with remark-
MR. W. E. WHITEHOUSE, VIOLONCELLIST.
Mr. William Edward Whitehouse's talent
has long found recognition at the hands of
our music-loving public. He is third son
of the late H. Whitehouse, Esq., Gentle-
man of Her Majesty's Chapel Royal, and
late lay Vicar of Westminster Abbey. He
was born in London, May 20th, 1859, and in
his boyhood studied the violin under Adol-
phus Griesbach. When thirteen years of age
his preference for the violioncello became
so apparent that he was placed under Walter
Pettit, whose pupil he was for nearly four
years. In 1877 Mr. Whitehouse entered the
Royal Academy of Music as a student vio-
loncellist, and Signor Piatti and Signor
Pezze became his masters, while for har-
mony he was placed under Mr. H. C. Ban-
nister. In 1878, Mr. Whitehouse gained
the Bonamy Dobree prize for violoncello;
in 1879 he obtained the bronze medal; and
in 1880 the silver medal. In 1882 he was
appointed assistant professor at the Royal
Academy of Music, and in the following year
he was made professor, which appointment
he holds at the present time. Further hon-
ors, however, were in store for him, for in
1883 he was elected Associate R. A. M., and
member of the Royal Society of Musicians
in 1884, Professor of the Cambridge Uni-
versity in 1886, Professor of the Royal Col-
lege of Music in 1891, King's College, Lon-
don in 1892, Manchester New College of
Music (under Sir Charles Halle) in 1892,
Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music in
1895, and member of the Court of Assist-
ants, Royal Society of Musicians in 1897.
Mr. Whitehouse is a quartet and solo player
par excellence, with a splendid record as
a teacher.
