BEST known both in his own country and abroad as the composer of a number of really beautiful songs, Reynaldo Hahn has composed much in the larger forms too-operas, ballets, and choral and orchestral music. His chamber music also has a real charm and individuality of its own. He is, moreover, a distinguished conductor, specializing in Mozart, and has ore now been selected to conduct a festival performance of Don Giovanni, at Salzburg. He was one of those who made his reputation at a very early age. He was only eleven when he entered the Paris Conservatoire, and his first published work appeared when he was fourteen.
