OAKELEY, Sib Hbbbebt Stanley, Mus. D., second son of the late Sir Herbert Oakeley, Bart., was born at Ealing, Middlesex, in Jrdy, 1830. His mother, Athole Murray, the third Lady Oakeley, was daughter of Lord Charles Mur- ray, youngest son -of John, third Duke of Athole. He was educated at Rugby School, and at Christ Church, Oxford (B.A. 1853, M.A. 1855). After having graduated he went abroad to complete his studies in music, for which, from earliest childhood, he had shown a marked predilection. At Leipzig he studied pianoforte-playing under Professor Moscheles and Plaidy, and at Bonn organ-playing under Dr. Breiden- stein. Professor of Music in that University, and later under the great organist Dr. Johann Schneider of Dresden. While resident in Lon- don he acted for some years as musical critic and correspondent to a well-known periodical, to which and to other journals he still con- tributes notices of musical festi- vals at home and abroad. In 1865, on the death of Professor Donaldson, he was elected Professor of Music in the University of Edinburgh. In 1871 he received ex officio the degree of Doctor of Music.

Doc. ; and in 1881 that of LL.D. was presented to him by the University of Aberdeen. In the same year he received the appoint- (
ment of Composer to Her Majesty in Scotland. He has written for the Church, for chorus, orchestra, organ, and pianoforte, and has pub- li^ed vocal quartets, &c. To Sir Herbert Oakeley's influence niay be in great measure attributed the in- crease in appreciation of the orffim and the orchestra which has taken place since his appointment at Edin- burgh ; and also the foundation of a Students' Musical Society at eadi of the four Scottish universities.
