The Uninhabited Island is the Overture to a little
Opera written by Haydn in honour of the name day of his patron, Prince Esterhazy. It begins with the traditional slow introduction, and the main section is in a lively measure. It is interrupted by a quieter movement, taken from one of the scenes in the opera which represent the Desert Island of the title.

ROBERT ERNEST BRYSON , although actively engaged in another career, has yet found time to win for himself a distinguished place among present-day composers, and there is nothing in his music to suggest the amateur. The fact, however, that he is not dependent on it for a livelihood may account for the comparative neglect with which a good deal of it has been treated. Modern in outlook and tendencies, his music is for the most part deeply earnest, and shows fine workmanship and finish. He inclines to the classical forms, though he uses them with a distinct personal freedom.
The best-known of his bigger works is as yet the opera The Leper's Flute, which the B.N.O.C. included in their repertoire ; but at least two of his symphonies, as well as a good many other smaller works, have-been performed, and one symphony gamed a Carnegie award.
