Easthope Martin
for several months. Mr. Martin, although quite
young, has achieved remarkable prominence in
the musical world. Born in 1883, he received
his musical education at Trinity College, later
studying under such well-known professors as
Dr. Gordon Saunders and Samuel Coleridge-
Taylor for composition.
He showed early signs of exceptional ability
as a composer and while still young began to
write songs which Showed not only a wonderful
appreciation of vocal values but also a very rare
and attractive originality of design which has
gone far to popularize his compositions through-
out the entire world.
Easthope Martin held during 1914 and 1915 the
post of organist to the late Henry C. Frick, of
New York. All of his compositions are pub-
lished by the firm of Enoch & Sons, New York
and London.
