BEST known, no doubt, to the average listener by his music in a lighthearted mood, specially by many of his eminently singable songs, Montague Phillips has a distinguished position in the serious realms of music, too. A brilliant former pupil of the Royal Academy of Music, he is now a Fellow of his old school, and has held the posts of Professor of Composition and of Examiner there. In 1912 a concert of his own music was given in London, at which the 'Symphony in C Minor' made a notable impression-the work from which two movements are to be played this evening. Other important works, such as a Pianoforte Concerto in F Sharp Minor and a Symphonic Poem, ' Boadicea,' have been heard at Patrons' Fund Concerts at the Royal College of Music. And in 1915 the London Symphony Orchestra played the Heroic Overture,' which, in a new and revised form begins this evening's programme.
Listeners who know his romantic Light opera
The Rebel Maid, as full of pleasing melody as any similar work which the English stage has known in our generation, will recognize in this evening's concert much of the same fresh, natural tunefulness which made that work so popular. Nor will any attentive hearer fail to discern the masterly way in which the orchestra and the solo pianoforte are used.
