Howard Talbot
Richard Lansdale Munkittrick, better known as Howard Talbot (9 March 1865 – 12 September 1928), was an American-born, English-raised conductor and composer of Irish descent. He was best known for writing the music to several hit Edwardian musical comedies, including ''A Chinese Honeymoon'', ''The Arcadians'' and ''The Boy'', as well as a number of other successful British musicals during the first two decades of the 20th century.
==Life and career==
Of Irish descent, Talbot was born in America in Yonkers, New York but moved to London at the age of four. His parents were Alexander Munkittrick and his wife, Lillie. Originally planning to enter the medical profession, he studied at King's College, London but switched to music and pursued a musical education at the Royal College of Music.〔''The Times'' obituary, 13 September 1928, p. 7〕 There he studied under Sir Hubert Parry, Sir Frederick Bridge and Sir Walter Parratt.〔Standing, Percy Cross. ("Chiefs of the Orchestras", ) ''The Crown'', London, 24 May 1906, pp. 60–61, reprinted at Footlight notes, press clippings for the week ending 22 March 2003〕 For some years, although Talbot had had works staged by amateurs in Hunstanton, Oxford and King's Lynn, professionally he only succeeded in having a few of his individual songs performed in other people's productions. In 1895, Talbot married an actress known as Amy Clare Betts (birthname Ada Bellamy; 1871?–1895), but his bride died only eight months after their wedding. He later married Dorothy Maud Cross from Sandringham, Norfolk. The couple produced four daughters.〔Gänzl, Kurt.
