has abstract	Gerald Harman Walenn (* 19. November 1871 in London (England); † 29. Januar 1942 in Australien) war ein britischer Violinist und Komponist klassischer Musik. (de) Gerald Harman Walenn (19 November 1871 – 27 January 1942) was a British violinist and composer of classical music. Walenn was born in London, England. His father, William Henry Walenn, was a scientist and worked for many years at the Patent Office in London. His mother, Skene Charlotte (née Barth) was musically trained but did not perform professionally. Nevertheless, her interest in music led to music professions of several of her children: was a cellist and professor at the Royal Academy of Music, Charles Walenn performed with the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company and J.C. Williamson, another brother was an organist, and Gerald and a sister were violinists. Two other children found their way into art professions. Walenn began playing the violin at the age of 8 under Kate Chaplin and later studied under . He continued his violin studies at the Royal Academy of Music under Prosper Sainton and after his death under Emile Sauret. He made his concert debut at the age of 14 with the Ballade for violin and orchestra, Op.16a by Moritz Moszkowski in the St James's Hall. He later performed the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto at Osborne House in the presence of Queen Victoria. Walenn also made extensive concert tours throughout Great Britain, the United States and Canada. In 1903 he formed the Walenn String Quartet with Herbert Kinze (violin), James Lockyer (viola), and his brother Herbert (cello). In later years the violist position was changed to Lionel Tertis. The quartet was disbanded in 1914 due to the beginning of World War I. The quartet gave many premieres, including the Suite for String Quartet in C major by Alexander Glazunov which was first performed in the Aeolian Hall on the 25th of June 1907. The composer attended both the rehearsals and the concert. In 1917 Walenn moved to Australia to follow a call for the position of a violin teacher at the Elder Conservatorium at Adelaide. Seven years later, in 1924 he took the same position at the New South Wales State Conservatorium of Music in Sydney and founded there the Conservatorium String Quartet with (violin), Alfred Hill (viola) and (cello). Walenn was made a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music, (F.R.A.M.) in 1936. He died in 1942 at the age of 70 in Sydney, "after a brief illness." (en)
