DAME RUTH KING, better known as Dame Ruth Railton, who has died aged 85, was the founder and music director for nearly 20 years of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain.
Like so many successful British artistic enterprises, the orchestra owes its existence to the vision and perseverance of one individual in the face of discouragement, ridicule and sometimes hostility.
Ruth Railton's idea in 1946 of bringing together young instrumentalists three times a year for training under a top-rank conductor and teachers, with a public concert at the end of each 10-week term, was met with virulent opposition from the Music Teachers' Association and the Schools Music Association. Her idealism had failed to take account of vested interests.
But she also had supporters. Sir Adrian Boult agreed to become president, with Sir Malcolm Sargent and Sir John Barbirolli as vice-presidents, and Vaughan Williams, Dame Myra Hess, Sir Arnold Bax (then Master of the King's Musick) and the dance-band leader Jack Hylton offered encouragement.
A London music publisher provided a room in his offices for the orchestra's administration and Ian Hunter, who was launching the Bath Assembly (as the festival was then called) in 1948, gave the orchestra a booking even though it did not yet exist and Railton had only £500 in its account.
She then toured the British Isles listening to each of the 2,000 schoolchildren who had answered an advertisement for places. Many of the school directors of music she met had been warned against her by the Music Teachers' Association, but most were impressed by her enthusiasm and sincerity and allowed their pupils to be auditioned and, if selected, to join the course.
Among the teachers on the first course at Bath were Henry Holst (violin), Lionel Tertis and Bernard Shore (viola), Douglas Cameron (cello) and Frederick Thurston and Richard Adeney (woodwind). A young composer, Malcolm Arnold, wrote and conducted his Opus 1 (Suite for Youth). The conductor for other works was Reginald Jacques, initially suspicious, but eventually a strong supporter.
Among the players were Colin Bradbury (clarinet) and William Waterhouse (bassoon), both of whom later became principals in the BBC Symphony Orchestra and the forerunners of many distinguished British musicians who graduated from the NYO.
The first concert was given on April 21 1948. A 13-year-old girl played a Mozart piano concerto and there were works by Weber, Beethoven and Elgar in addition to the Arnold. It was followed by another concert in Cambridge four months later.
In 1952 the orchestra was invited to perform at the Edinburgh Festival and in 1953 gave its first concerts in London and Brussels. Thereafter many distinguished conductors, notably Sargent, Jean Martinon and Rudolf Schwarz, worked with the orchestra and its astonishingly high standard was acknowledged by critics.
Ruth Railton was born at Folkestone on December 14 1915. Her father was an Army chaplain who is credited with the idea of the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey and was later Rector of Liverpool. Her mother had been a pupil of the violinist Eugene Ysaye in Brussels.
Ruth was educated at St Mary's School, Wantage, and later studied pianoforte at the Royal Academy of Music.
At the outbreak of war in 1939 she abandoned her music studies to be near her fiance, an RAF pilot who was killed in the Battle of Britain.
She gravitated back to music, training choirs in various parts of the country under the aegis of Reginald Jacques, then music director of the Council for the Encouragement of Music and the Arts (forerunner of the Arts Council). She also toured as pianist for the contralto Kathleen Ferrier and the violinist Yfrah Neaman.
For two years she organised choral music in Leicester. Conducting schoolchildren in Messiah gave her the idea for something more national and ambitious after the war.
As soon as the war was over, she propagated her idea for a National Youth Orchestra, only to be told by the then director of the Royal College of Music, Sir George Dyson, that "talent of the kind you are talking about doesn't often exist".
He added that it would be impossible to get children from all over Britain into one place for rehearsals and concerts. She set out to disprove both claims.
Ruth Railton remained music director of the NYO until 1965. Like many forceful personalities, she was not always easy to work with and crises punctuated her regime. But everyone recognised her devotion to her brainchild and her determination to ensure its survival.
Shunning personal publicity, she was indefatigable in obtaining financial sponsorship. In 1952 the Daily Mirror, under the chairmanship of Cecil King, whom she later married, agreed to sponsor the NYO and also bought it a new set of percussion instruments.
Something of her power of persuasion can be gauged from the fact that, at their first meeting with her, the Mirror representatives quickly withdrew a proposal that the orchestra should be called the Daily Mirror Youth Orchestra.
During her directorship the orchestra visited Germany, France, Russia, Finland, Poland, Switzerland, Israel, Greece, Portugal and Italy. When she retired in 1965, some of the committee suggested (to her horror) that the orchestra be discontinued, but instead it was decided to suspend activities as a means of seeking Government support. Fortunately, the orchestra survived independently.
Ruth Railton was a governor of the Royal Ballet School from 1966 to 1974. When she and her husband moved to Dublin, she involved herself in Irish cultural affairs. In 1992 she published Daring To Excel, the story of the NYO.
She was appointed OBE in 1954 and DBE in 1966. She married Cecil King in 1962; he died in 1987.

Today is Record Store Day, a movement that began in 2007 in order to celebrate independent record stores and the unique culture of owners, employees, artists, and customers that help them thrive. In honor of the occasion, here’s another “Inside the Archival Box” post with a look at the production of the first LP!
Columbia Records released the first long-playing microgroove record, spinning at 33 1/3 revolutions per minute and holding about 23 minutes each side, in June, 1948. The 12-inch LP quickly became the standard format for commercial recordings, ushering in a new musical unit of consumption—the album.
The Recorded Sound Section of the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division at the Library of Congress holds a collection of Columbia Records paperwork, which spans the years 1923 to 1964 and contains materials such as record label orders and copy sheets, press release information, recording studio job sheets, and cut-out project information (describing records to be cut out of the catalog).
Inconspicuously described in the finding aid of the collection as “Box 120-121: ML 4001 to ML 4169, 1948 March-1949 April” are label orders related to that very first LP. With a matrix number—the serial number assigned to each side of a disc by the record company—of ML 4001, the first long playing disc featured the Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra of New York (better known today as the New York Philharmonic) under the baton of Bruno Walter, performing Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E minor with Nathan Milstein as the soloist.
The order form, accompanied by several early drafts of the center disc label, is dated March 1st, 1948, and is signed by H.F. Chmura—Columbia Records librarian Helene F. Chmura.
Along with the label order forms for ML 4001 are labels, forms, and several copies of a memo from April, 1948, regarding special demonstration albums consisting of four 12-inch discs and two 10-inch discs that were sent out to Columbia’s distributors in June of 1948 (Office Communication from Ken McAllister to Elmer Eldridge, April 1948, Box 121, folder 3, Columbia Records Paperwork Collection). Along with the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto, these albums featured three other 12-inch LPs of a demonstration talk describing the advantages of the new long-playing vinyl record and classical music from the Philadelphia Orchestra under the baton of Eugene Ormandy, the Metropolitan Opera, and the New York Philharmonic conducted by Artur Rodzinski: Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and Grieg’s Piano Concerto in A minor (with Oscar Levant at the piano), Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, favorites from Bizet’s Carmen, and ballet suites from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker and Khatchaturian’s Gayane. The two 10-inch discs featured Strauss waltzes and the music of Stephen Foster conducted by Andre Kostelanetz. 10,000 copies of each album were produced to be shipped in bulk to Columbia’s distributors by June 21st, 1948.
The album’s 12-inch discs were given blue labels and the 10-inch discs green, and both sizes had the sides of their labels clipped to indicate that the records were not for commercial sale.
On that June 21st date, Columbia Records president Edward Wallerstein announced the new technology at a press conference at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. Wallerstein demonstrated the new record, and declared that Columbia was ready to sell the new format straight away.
LPs are first listed and lauded in the 1949 Columbia Record Catalog. The new record, which featured not only a finer groove but was also made of a sturdier material, vinyl, is described energetically in the catalog:
The revolutionary new Columbia Long Playing (LP) Microgroove Record plays up to 45 minutes of music on one 12-inch record, or approximately six times as much music as conventional shellac records. After more than a decade of preparation, the world’s greatest symphonies, concertos, tone poems and chamber music are now held in their entirety on one album-length record. Available, too, are sparkling collections of lighter music and popular songs, by leading artists. LP records are made of nonbreakable Vinylite, giving you in addition to the extended playing time the strength of Vinylite discs and their noise-free surfaces. Each LP record consists of scores of microscopically fine grooves, precisely controlled channels capable of capturing the most subtle nuances or most magnificent fortissimi.
In fact, Columbia was not the first record company to try to improve upon the limitations of 78 rpm discs. Wallerstein himself had shut down a failed attempt at a long-playing disc during his time at RCA Victor in the early 1930s. Many of the parts of Columbia’s successful LP existed as early as the 1920s: the material (vinyl), the speed (33 1/3 revolutions per minute), as well as several unsuccessful attempts at microgroove, including RCA Victor’s. It was the microgroove that ultimately proved crucial to the success of the long-playing disc, and it was the microgroove that Peter Goldmark and his team of Columbia (and its parent company, CBS) engineers perfected in the summer of 1947. A number of engineers and managers deserve credit for that breakthrough: Goldmark, who oversaw the project; Bill Bachman, an engineer and research director at at Columbia whose “brains and leadership” brought the project to fruition; and several other engineers named by Sean Wilentz in 360 Sound: The Columbia Records Story—Bill Savory, Ike Rodman, Jim Hunter, Vin Liebler, and Rene Snepvangers (pg. 129).
The introduction of the long-playing disc changed the way record labels, musicians, and consumers packaged, created, and listened to music. When Columbia first began manufacturing LPs, the term “album” referred literally to a collection of discs contained together in a group of bound sleeves. This was because longer musical works required multiple 78 rpm discs, the most popular recording format at the time. As LPs gained prominence, the term shifted meaning to refer to the songs or pieces recorded onto a single record—creating a new unit of consumption for the recording industry. Beyond allowing listeners to hear an entire symphonic work or extended jazz composition without having to change records every few minutes, LPs could fit a dozen pop songs between their two sides. Bands and musicians began to conceive and record full LPs rather than singles, and the music on these new albums was often unified around a common theme, musical concept, or narrative—enter the “concept album.” To this day the album remains the standard structure of commercial music releases, and vinyl itself has seen a resurgence of popularity in recent years (as a celebration like Record Store Day might suggest). Apart from the major addition of stereo sound in the late 1950s, the LP has remained relatively unchanged as a form of recording.
The Columbia Records Paperwork Collection is available for research in the Recorded Sound Research Center. You can explore the finding aid here. For more information about this collection or recorded sound research in general, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Recorded Sound reference librarians.
Happy Record Store Day 2019!

Synopsis
In the 1940s, the Boston Symphony gave the premiere of more than 60 new orchestral works—most conducted by the very charismatic and very wealthy Serge Koussevitzky, the music director of the Boston Symphony.
And why not? It was the Koussevitzky Foundation that commissioned most of those pieces in the first place, and certainly Maestro Koussevitzky had the knack for picking winners and advancing the careers of composers he admired. In the 1940s, for example, Koussevitzky premiered no less than four major works by the Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu. On today’s date in 1943, one of these pieces, Martinu’s Second Violin Concerto, received its first performance under Koussevitzky with Mischa Elman as the soloist.
But not all the Boston premieres were conducted by Koussevitzky. Earlier that same December of 1943, the American composer and conductor Howard Hanson led the orchestra in the first performance of his Symphony No. 4, and on today’s date in 1948, the premiere of his own Piano Concerto, with the Boston Symphony and the Czech pianist Rudolf Firkusny as soloist. Like the Martinu Concerto, this, too, was a Koussevitzky Foundation commission.
And while we’re on the subject of music patrons, we should note that George Eastman, the great Kodak film magnate, was so impressed with Hanson back in the 1920s that he put him in charge of the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. This recording of the jazzy finale from Hanson’s concerto is from a 1965 recording, featuring the Eastman-Rochester orchestra conducted by Hanson.

The Great Synagogue of Iași () is the oldest surviving synagogue in Romania,Samuel Gruber's Jewish Art & Monuments, Romania: Iași Synagogue in Restoration, May 31, 2010  located in Iași. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Monuments.The Romanian Register of Historical Monuments  (page 1616, entry 1248)

History and architecture
Raised in 1671, the Great Synagogue is a free standing building adjacent to a small garden off Cucu Street (once called Sinagogilor Street for the many synagogues located on it) just north of the city center in the old Jewish neighbourhood of Târgu Cucului. The synagogue underwent major renovations in 1761, 1822 and 1864. It was partly restored in the 1970s and a major restoration took place between 2006 and 2018. The Women's Gallery houses a small museum of the Jewish community of Iași.

The building has round-arched windows, and two wings.  One wing is two stories high and capped by a barrel-vaulted ceiling. The other is a tall, single-story hall with a  diameter dome capped with a lantern. The dome was added to the building in the early 20th century.Synagogues of Romania, Aristide Streja, Lucian Schwarz, Editura Hasefer, 1997, p. 111.

Of the more than 110 synagogues in Iași before World War II, the Great Synagogue remains a witness of the Holocaust, and it is one of only two which continues to serve the dwindling Jewish community of Iași.

The historic 17th century Great Synagogue in Iasi, in northern Romania, is under restoration. The Swiss historian and diplomat simon Geissbuehler (who has written widely on Jewish heritage in Romania) visited the site last week and provided the picture above. He said the synagogue is empty, and that some work has been completed on the foundations, but that workers on the site did not have a time frame for the work's completion.
The synagogue was built in 1671 and is the oldest surviving synagogue building in Romania. (Before World War II, there were more than 110 synagogus in Iasi alone.) The synagogue has simple lines and tall dome and is set in a small garden, almost totally surrounded by new buildings. Inside, a huge, elaborate Ark, surrounded by frescoes, fills one end of the hall. The former women's gallery for years housed a small exhibit on local Jewish history, organized in the 1980s.

It is published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Society for Financial Studies .

It was established following discussions at the 1986 Western Finance Association meetings , and the first issue was published in 1988 .

The Review of Financial Studies (RFS) was established following discussions at the 1986 WFA meetings between Michael Brennan, George Constantinides, Jon Ingersoll, Chester Spatt, and Joseph Williams. These individuals recognized that the finance profession would benefit from the establishment of a journal that would publish relevant new research without regard to level of technical difficulty; that would be especially sensitive to the needs and interests of the younger members of the profession; that would limit the tenure of the editorial board in order to ensure sensitivity to new ideas; that would not be tied to any one university, and that would be owned by the profession rather than by commercial interests.
Michael Brennan, who had already served as the editor of the Journal of Finance, agreed to be the first editor of the new journal. Mark Weinstein was recruited to help organize the non-profit organization that would own the journal, and the Society for Financial Studies (SFS) was incorporated in California in 1987. The founding officers of the SFS were Joseph Williams (President), George Constantinides (Vice President), Mark Weinstein (Secretary/Treasurer), and Michael Brennan (Editor of the RFS). With financial backing provided by a committee of Founders (Michael Brennan, George Constantinides, Nils Haakanson, Jon Ingersoll, Robert Litzenberger, Robert Merton, Merton Miller, Richard Roll, Steven Ross, Myron Scholes, Chester Spatt, and Joseph Williams), the SFS was able to negotiate a favorable publishing contract with Oxford University Press in 1987. A call for papers was made and the first issue was published in 1988. Such was the success of the journal that by 1990 the Society was able to repay all of the funds provided by the Founders.
In keeping with the principles on which the journal was founded, a majority of the Associate Editors of the RFS is elected by the current Board of Editors, and the Editor and Associate Editors serve for relatively short terms. For example, the Executive Editor’s term is limited to no more than six years, and thus far the executive editors (Michael Brennan, Chester Spatt, Franklin Allen, Ravi Jagannathan, Maureen O’Hara, Matthew Spiegel, David Hirshleifer, Andrew Karolyi, and Itay Goldstein) have nearly always been affiliated with a different university.

20. Girl Fight
The reasons behind Girl Fight's creation become wildly apparent from the moment the game begins. This wasn't made to be a finely-tuned, balanced fighting game with an all-female cast; this is meant to be a T&A show, filled to the brim with the worst stereotypes imaginable. We'd give the game the tiniest ounce of credit if the fighting was at all balanced, but that's hardly the case here.
This seems to be made by people who enjoy 3D fighters but don't know how to make them. It tries to be like Tekken, Dead or Alive, and other big time franchises, but its oversimplified controls and lack of a decent story framing the action drops it down a lot of pegs. If you were looking for balance in your all-female fighters, check out Skullgirls and leave this girl fight alone.
19. Elf Bowling 1 & 2
Packed with a whopping five-minutes of gameplay, Elf Bowling is the epitome of cash-grab ports and an unforgivable chapter in Nintendo's shovelware history. Forgetting that the original Elf Bowling and its sequel were both available free on PCs for years before its commercial release, and the DS release charged around $20 for the exact same experience, the game itself stunk more than Santa's sack after the Christmas rush.
Elf Bowling's core experience consisted of knocking over the fat man's elves with bowling balls or shuffleboard pucks, and surviving the urge to punch a wall every time one of the perky-eared idiots cracked wise about your performance. Objectively, we can see how's Elf Bowling's crass design made it a popular time-killer on PC. But as a retail DS game? That's the biggest insult of them all.
18. Batman: Dark Tomorrow
The battle is won, Ras Al Ghul is defeated. The ending cinematic rolls and Al Ghul's bombs detonate, killing 1/3 of the human race. Wait, what?!
Oh, right, for the best ending there's a signal Batman must disarm before beating Al Ghul, but not once throughout Batman: Dark Tomorrow is the player informed of this. The game also suffer from terrible combat mechanics and a camera that makes Epic Mickeys look like cinematography genius, but this unknown task is simply unforgivable.
17. Infestation: Survivor Stories
Day Z has itself quite a following, using ultra-difficult survival gameplay and an always-dangerous world to pull players in and keep them there. Infestation: Survivor Stories, which you may recognize as The War Z, tried to create some competition for the mod, but instead create a monster worse than any shambling dead present in the game.
First the game releases without some of its most advertised features included. Next, once those issues were fixed, the game was plagued with awful controls, bland visuals, and players who instantly hacked the game to their advantage. Worst of all, the free-to-play aspect has some of the most heinous microtransactions we've ever seen. Paying real money for in-game supplies like ammo and weapons, without any other ways to gain these items, tells us gamers should all be conscientious objectors to this war.
16. The Guy Game
Representing a new low in the cheaply produced games with cheaply rendered nudity genre, The Guy Game proved there was a limit to how many douchetastic hoops gamers would jump through to see a little flesh. Never mind the fact that The Guy Game offered roughly 1/1000th of what the internet could in mere seconds at the time. Top Heavy Studios stashed its buxom treasures behind a Flash-O-Meter that forced players to wade through a parade of busty morons, multiple layers of censorship, and a thick swamp of shame in order to finally view prizes you could have probably earned in real life with half the effort.
Not since the days of scrambled porn and dial-up internet has a piece of software made us work so hard for such mediocre adult material. If you'll excuse us, we need to take a long, hot shower.
15. Catfight
The original Mortal Kombat uses digitized actors to craft its characters, creating a 'we're fighting with real people' visual style that fans understandably loved. Other titles tried to copy this approach, most of them with very little success. Way down on the list of failures is the PC-exclusive Catfight, also known as the Ultimate Femme Fatale Fighting Game, a release that is anything but ultimate.
Slow combat, over-sexualized characters (seriously, no one wears a pair of pants, it's all body suits or spandex that'd make Cammy blush), and some of the worst hit detection we've ever seen in a fighting game make this one truly bad game. We don't even know what the developers were trying to achieve, because we fail to see who would even find this arousing. We're sorry we even brought it to your attention.
14. Blackwater
Quick! Make a list obvious things you need in a modern video game shooter and well see if they're in 505 Studios POS Blackwater. Checkpoints? Nope, gotta start over. Lots of enemies to fight? No again, unless you think five means lots. Immersive environments? Well, they would have been during the Commodore 64 era. Well-implemented Kinect technology? Wait, you're just being silly.
None of the things it tries to do are executed remotely well, and its since become one of the very worst games GR has ever reviewed. We suppose you could make a drinking game out of this with your friends, but that would mean that you would have to plug in a controller and play this hack-job normally (though equally badly). Why the hell would anybody do that? you may wonder. What you should be asking is, Why the hell did anybody publish this?
13. Mortal Kombat Advance
The Mortal Kombat franchise has seen a lot of ups and downs over the years, but nothing like the vomit that wound up on the Gameboy Advance in 2001. Essentially a port of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, MK Advance did feature all of the characters from the famed arcade fighter, just neutered by cutting the amounts of attacks in half and looking like your cat peed just inside the your GBAs screen.
It's also off-the-chart difficult. Even in the novice list of AI opponents, the rough, unresponsive controls won't stand up to the relentless computer-controlled enemies. Seriously. It's a mess.
12. Friday the 13th
We love the term death simulator. Mostly because it's bandied around by talking heads that have no idea what it means. The one and only time that it can actually be used with accuracy, though, is LJN's god awful Friday the 13th for the NES. Why? Because you will die, you will die often, and you won't even know why you're dying. Then you come to your senses and stop playing it. Demons Souls and Dark Souls found a way to make this fun years later. Friday the 13th found a way to make this a precursor to pulmonary embolisms.
Loosely following the plot of the first film (loosely meaning barely), you take control of the counseling staff of Camp Crystal Lake so you can well nobody was ever quite sure. You can kill Jason (whom will always come back), or you can survive for three days/nights which is damn near impossible. To describe this game any more than just saying that its a steaming pile of crap seems tedious. So just take it as face value.
11. Drake of the 99 Dragons
Thank the gaming gods for Uncharted and Nathan Drake, as he returned honor to the name Drake after this original Xbox title smeared it through the dirt. 99 Dragons has a great concept for a silly action game; an undead assassin from Hong Kong must save the world from evil using martial arts powers bestowed by his master. But it's all downhill from there.
The story makes zero sense, with an ending as unsatisfying as the NES one screen then credits days. The camera is awful; half the time you can't see what you're shooting at. Worst of all the combat is glacially slow and the visuals are flavorless, leaving nothing for any player to enjoy. What were trying to say is this: if you're playing this game I feel bad for you son, it's got 99 dragons but it's got no fun.

George Rodway Poulton (bapt. 16 October 1828Wiltshire, England, Church of England Births and Baptisms, 1813-1916 – 1867) was an English musician and composer.

He was born in Cricklade, near Cirencester, Wiltshire, England in 1828 to Charles Poulton and Hannah Rodway Poulton. He was baptised in St. Mary's Church and was raised in the town until the age of seven when his parents, Charles and Hannah Poulton, emigrated to Lansingburgh, New York. George Poulton's descendants still have connections with Cricklade.

In 1861, George Poulton composed the melody for the song "Aura Lea", which was popular during the American Civil War, and later became popular with college glee clubs and barbershop quartets. It was also sung at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York. In 1956 the tune (now in the public domain) was given new lyrics and released as the Elvis Presley song "Love Me Tender".

In 1864, he was tarred and feathered after having an affair with a young student.  He died in 1867, aged thirty-eight.

Elvis' debt to Cricklade composer
TODAY marks the 30th anniversary of the death of Elvis Presley.
To date he has sold over one billion records in America alone, and has had 150 different albums and singles that have been certified gold, platinum or multi-platinum.
Hundreds of thousands of fans have undertaken the pilgrimage to Graceland this week to celebrate the legacy of the undisputed king of rock and roll and enjoy a special 30th anniversary concert featuring recordings of the king and thousands of impersonators.
But few realise the humble Wiltshire roots of one of the King's most famous hits.
Love Me Tender, which reached number one in America, was originally composed by George R Poulton, a man born in Cricklade in 1828.
He was baptised in St Mary's Church and was raised in the town until the age of seven when his parents, Charles and Hannah Poulton emigrated to Lansingburgh, New York.
George Poulton grew up to become a celebrated musician and in 1861 composed Aura Lea, one of the most popular tunes of the 19th Century which became a very famous Civil War song.
It went: "As the blackbird in the spring, Neath the willow tree, Sat and piped I heard him sing, Sing of Aura Lea."
The legacy of this tune evidently lived on well into the next century because in 1956 Elvis changed the lyrics to form Love Me Tender, which also became the title of one of his films.
George Poulton's descendants still have connections with the Saxon town where he was born.
Betty Wickam, great-grand daughter of George's sister Mary Ann, recently became a member of Cricklade Historical Society.
George Poulton died only six years after writing Aura Lea in 1876 but his work is still celebrated.
In 1976 the Lansingburgh Historical Society co-sponsored a bicentennial music salute to commemorate his work.
But according to the society's treasurer Kathleen Tivnan, George Poulton ended his career in disgrace.
She said: "He was an interesting character to say the least. He got into trouble in 1864 because he was too friendly with one of his music students.
"He was dismissed from his position as a professor for conduct unbecoming of a teacher'.
"A few days later he was tarred and feathered by the girl's enraged family by the River Hudson and forced to move further west.
"This affected his health and he died a couple of years later."
