Untitled[edit]

There are at least two Prout organ concertos- Augener published an E minor concerto, his op.5, in 1886 [1] and his second, in E-flat (his opus 35) was published by Vincent Music Company of London in 1909 ([2]). (Does the referred-to book contain a good catalog of his works, is it accurate?) As to symphonies a Worldcat search turns up a 3rd symphony in F, op. 22, published around 1885 [3]. There is also a string quartet op. 1 [4], Piano quartet (called in one reference his Prize quartett) (awarded the first prize by the society of British Musicians in 1865) [5] (first piano quartet in C major [6]), Piano quintet in G op. 3 [7]; Organ sonata op 4 [8], string quartet no. 2 in B-flat [9], piano quartet (no. 2 in F) op. 18 from the 1860s [10], clarinet sonata in D op. 26 [11]. (Also many arrangements, editions, oratorios, etc. in addition to the books for which he became famous or infamous... - will try to be more thorough but later.)

Further[edit]

Prout's symphony in G minor (Allegro moderato e con fuoco/Larghetto espressivo in E-flat/Allegro molto in C minor/Vivace assai in G minor), "produced at the Crystal Palace since our last issue" so late 1877, (possibly his first or second symphony, given the date, since the third was written for the Birmingham Festival of 1885?) is given a detailed musical description in an article of the Musical Times of January 1, 1878 ("Mr. Prout's New Symphony". The Musical Times and Singing Class Circular. 19 (419): 24–5. doi:10.2307/3356637. ISSN 0958-8434.
