Curiously, however, it appears that though a performance was evidently contemplated, one was never given during the composer's lifetime, and it was not until 1937 that the work was heard for the first time.
Besides the intimate concerts at Dannreuther's home at 12 Orme Square, Bayswater, where most of Parry's chamber works were first performed, the other main focus of his attention was the regular series of concerts at the Crystal Palace.
Dannreuther, as a celebrated concert pianist, provided his pupil with an introduction to the orchestra and their resident conductor, Sir August Manns, who subsequently gave the first performances of Parry's unashamedly Wagnerian concert overture Guillem de Cabestanh (March 1879) and the Piano Concerto in F sharp with Dannreuther as soloist (April 1880).

Little Edward, one of five children, seemed to inherit the mother's musical talent and had vivid recollections of the rhythmic animation and spirit with which she played the works of Weber, who was one of her favorite composers.
When Edward Grieg was a little over thirty, in the year 1874, the Norwegian Government honored him with an annuity of sixteen hundred crowns a year, for life.
Then the grotto was closed and a stone slab with the words "Edward Grieg" cut upon it, was cemented in the cliff.

 Hubert Parry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born in Bournemouth, Hampshire, and brought up at Highnam Court, Gloucestershire, he was the son of an amateur artist, and was educated at Eton and Exeter College, Oxford.
He studied with the English-born composer Henry Hugo Pierson in Stuttgart, and with William Sterndale Bennett and the pianist Edward Dannreuther in London.
His first major works appeared in 1880: a piano concerto and a choral setting of scenes from Shelley's Prometheus Unbound.

He studied successively with H. Pierson (at Stuttgart), Sterndale Bennett and Macfarren; but the most important - part of his artistic development was due to Edward Dannreuther.
Among the larger works of this early period must be mentioned an overture, Guillem de Cabestanh (Crystal Palace, 1879), a pianoforte concerto in F sharp minor, played by Dannreuther at the Crystal Palace and Richter concerts in 1880, and his first choral work, the Scenes from Prometheus Unbound, produced at the Gloucester Festival, 1880.
These, like a symphony in G given at the Birmingham Festival of 1882, seemed strange even to educated hearers, who were confused by the intricacy of treatment.

 Sleeve Notes - Parry: Job - An Oratorio   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
It must be something with lots of chance for chorus- and just at this moment- when I haven't thought much about it, it seems to me it might be worked by having a 'Narrator' as in the early Oratorios and in the Passions and Resurrections; introducing the characters in propriâ persona as well.
Parry gave serious consideration to all these, but in the end, under pressure from the Birmingham Festival committee, he agreed to a more traditional subject with, as he confessed to Dannreuther later in October 1887, 'the mental reservation that there shouldn't be much of religion or biblical oratorio beyond the name'.
Dannreuther's reaction was highly encouraging: 'Never saw him so enthusiastic over anything of mine', Parry wrote in his diary on 24January; 'He said Job's lamentation was "magnificent".' Inspired by Dannreuther's verdict, Parry finished the 'Lamentation' by 26January after which there was another interruption while The Frogs was given at Oxford.

 Composer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Above all, in London he made acquaintance of the pianist and Wagnerian Edward Dannreuther, who became his friend, teacher and adviser.
In addition to the income settled on his wife by her family, he had been making a living from his contribution of articles for Grove’s new dictionary of music and musicians.
In 1880 Dannreuther played Parry’s Piano Concerto in F sharp major, a choice of key that did not endear him to the orchestra, at the Crystal Palace and success here was followed by a cantata based on Shelley’s Prometheus Unbound for the Gloucester Festival, where it was performed in 1882.

In that year 1872, Edward Dannreuther (1844-1905) published a series of essays in the Monthly Musical Record entitled "Wagner and the reform of the opera": they formed the basis of his book Richard Wagner: His Tendencies and Theories (1873), the first serious study of Wagner to appear in English.
The opening of Dannreuther's book noted that in Europe "Competent and incompetent critics, fighting under every manner of flag, have assaulted the 'musician of the future' or broken a lance in his honour.

Then followed three years of work at Lloyd's register of shipping in London, and more lessons on composition, from Edward Dannreuther.
Parry came to real public attention for the first time in 1880, with performances of his Piano Concerto in F sharp (played by Dannreuther) at Crystal Palace, and his Scenes from Prometheus Unbound at the Gloucester Three Choirs' Festival.
Prometheus was recognised as a new departure in choral music, and the large-scale works for chorus and orchestra, often given their first performances at the `Three Choirs', which followed over many years, have been the most influential of his works, and have inspired a whole generation of English composers.

Their epoch is not so remote from us; the 17th and 18th centuries were distinguished not only for the number of their creative geniuses, but for their remarkable theorists, and, if anything, we should complain of the number of documents available, for a lifetime would hardly suffice to know half of them.
Edward Dannreuther (1844-1905) was an English pianist and music critic, author of Musical Ornamentation (London, 1893).
Andre Pirro (1869-1943) was a French organist and scholar, the author of a history of 14-16th century music.

The early performances of Mozart operas in London depended on middle-class, rather than aristocratic patronage; the aristocracy preferred Italian opera and another essay looks at the effect its audiences (and the critics) had on performing practice.
We hear about the programmes of concert series like John Ella's long-lived Musical Union, Edward Dannreuther's Orme Square venture, the programmes at the Royal Academy and Royal College in the 1880s, whose differences inter se are fascinating, and the work of the Society for British Musicians (1834-1865) for native musicians and composers.
A study of Michael Costa and August Manns contrasts their methods and repertoire; they raised, dramatically, standards of conducting in Britain and surely paved the way for the achievements of Henry Wood and later British exponents.

The orchestra was a freelance group, though largely corresponding to that of the Harvard Musical Association.
The version generally familiar today incorporates revisions made by the Alsatian-born English pianist Edward Dannreuther in 1876 and by Tchaikovsky with Alexander Siloti in 1889.
In 1876 Tchaikovsky gratefully accepted some suggestions about the piano writing—the very thing he had hoped Rubinstein could provide—from Edward Dannreuther, an English pianist, writer, and Wagner exegete who had just given the London premiere.
