At age thirteen he organized an amateur orchestra, studied the cornet, was assistant conductor of the school orchestra; and at sixteen he was playing cornet in a professional orchestra. [2]

He graduated from Princeton University, cum laude, in 1888, and while there he became leader of the Glee Club and Chapel Choir. [1] He composed Princeton's "Steps Song" and arranged much of the music sung by the glee club. He also studied piano with William Mason and singing with Francis Fisher Powers. He studied the French Horn with Hermann Hand of the New York Symphony Orchestra. [2] He then received a Master's Degree from Columbia University. [1]

He went to California in 1892 as musical director of the Thacher School. [1] In 1894, he went to Berlin where he studied composition with Royal Music Director Wilhelm Freudenberg, composer and director of opera, and with O. B. Boise; and organ with Arthur Egidi. [2]

He returned to New York around 1898, and studied organ with Homer N. Bartlett. From 1899 to 1901 he was lecturer on music, organist and choirmaster, at Princeton University. He then resigned, and devoted his time to composition and singing. For one year he sang in the chorus of the Metropolitan Opera Company. [2]
