EASTHOPE MARTIN was born in Ireland in 1883. He received his musical education at Trinity College of Music, and was at one time Organist at the Aeolian Hall in London. Later, ho went to the United States as a Concert Organist. Then he became consumptive and went to live in the South of France, and there died.
He specialized in the playing of the Pianola, his performance on it, at the Queen's Hall, of a piano Concerto, with Nikisch conducting the London Symphony Orchestra, constituted, probably, the first appearance of this instrument in such a capacity, and at the time aroused great interest.
He is best remembered now as a song-writer.
His more serious art-songs are not so much sung as are his lighter ballads, in which he had a charming facility and a sure touch.
