Biographical History
George Whitefield Chadwick (b. Lowell, MA, 13 November 1854; d. Boston, MA, 4 April 1931) was an American composer, teacher, organist and conductor. Beginning in 1872, Chadwick studied organ with George E. Whiting, piano with Carlyle Petersilea , and theory with Stephen A. Emery at the New England Conservatory in Boston. In 1876 Chadwick accepted a faculty position within the music program at Olivet College in Michigan. A year later Chadwick went to Germany where he studied with Karl Reinecke, Salomon Jadassohn, and Josef Rheinberger. Returning to the United States in 1880, he was hired as an instructor in music theory at the New England Conservatory; in 1897 he became its director and held this post until shortly before his death. As an educator Chadwick played an important role in American music; among his pupils were the composers Horatio Parker, Henry Hadley, and Frederick Converse. As a composer, Chadwick belonged to what can be called the New England School of American composers of the late 19th century. Many consider his music to portray a distinctively American style. His works included several operas, three symphonies, five string quartets, tone poems, incidental music, songs and choral anthems. In addition, Chadwick served as the Music Director of the Springfield Festival from 1890 to 1899, and of the Worcester Festival from 1899 to 1901.
