Henry Houseley 1851 1888 1890 1895 1925 1972
Phillip Sear plays an 1890 piece by the British organist, conductor, composer and teacher Henry Houseley +••.••(...)). / Born in Nottinghamshire, England, Houseley studied organ there and in London (Royal College of Organists), and took up various organist appointments. In 1888 he emigrated to Denver, Colorado to take up the post of deputy organist at St. John's Episcopal Cathedral. He held this post until 1895, when he succeeded another English organist, John Gower as the head organist - a job he retained for the rest of his life. Although best remembered for liturgical music, Houseley wrote six operas in Denver, as well as organ and piano music. His remarkable career in Denver, and impact on cultural life there is well described in a 1972 edition of the Colorado Magazine ( (http•••) ). This piece probably stands accused of being long-winded (there is not much variety of music in its 5+ minutes, and it could easily be cut down for concert performance), but it is a pleasant listen. / Played by Phillip Sear (http•••) (Email: •••@••• WhatsApp: (http•••) )
