VOCAL 78 rpm DISCS EDWARD LLOYD [t]. London, 1845-Worthing, 1927. Lloyd was the major British concert and oratorio tenor of the last quarter of the 19th century. He began as a chorister at Westminster Abbey and was subsequently engaged for St. Andrews and then the Chapel Royal. His solo career began in 1871, singing the tenor solo in Bach’s St. Matthew Passion at the Gloucester Festival. He received much acclaim through his singing of this work, as well as in oratorios of Händel, Mendelssohn, and other com- posers, notably Elgar. He was a particular favorite of Elgar and created the tenor solos in that composer’s Caractacus (1898) and The Dream of Gerontius (the year of his farewell, 1900). While he was no longer EDWARD LLOYD, pianist Mme. Adami and unidentified cellist heard regularly on the stage, Lloyd made a recording, circa 1907 number of records for the Gramophone Company in London, 1902 to 1911. Lloyd’s American debut was at the Cincinnati May Festival in 1888. His colleague, baritone Charles Santley, described him physically as “a nice, plump little gentleman”. The New York Times gave a more thorough description on his arrival in 1888. He “looks and acts about as much like a good-natured New York business man as anybody else. He is of medium height, stocky in build, and rather florid of face. He has pleasant dark eyes and dark hair that is just tinged with gray and is brushed down very smooth. A neat mustache is the only hair he wears on his face. He is extremely pleasant in his manner”. 2106. 12” Blk. SR HMV D.821 [1008c/892f].
