Notice biographique
City Organist, and Organist of St. George's Church, Hobart, he was one of the most popular musicians in Hobart. He was educated at the Scotch College. At a very early age he took an interest in music, and studied under the former city organist, Mr. F. A. Packer, and Miss Julia Wigmore, at one time a leading professional of Hobart. On completing his education Mr. Haywood was engaged as assistant teacher in the Scotch College, a position which allowed him time to pursue his musical studies. He subsequently entered the Civil Service, and at the occupied a responsible position in the Lands and Works Department. At a very early age Mr. Haywood acted as sub-organist and organist at St. John the Baptist
and Holy Trinity Churches respectively, and so successful has he been in church work that there are many of the rising generation who look back with pleasure to the long hours of musical study they passed with him. Mr. Haywood, in collaboration with Mr. M. M. Ansell, B.A., produced a catchy opera, entitled "The Brigands of La
Mancha," the success of which was unqualified. It is the first opera composed and produced locally. As a composer of first-class church music Mr. Haywood stands out prominently, and though a great deal of it has not been published it is used in the services of the church (St. George's, Battery Point) where Mr. Haywood at present officiates in the dual capacity of organist and choirmaster. Mr. Haywood has devoted a great deal of attention to the training of chorister boys, and those who have heard his choir can testify to his success with them. As city organist his talent is recognised, and he is an accomplished pianist. No one is more willing to lend his services for a benevolent object than himself. He is a member of the Local Committee of Trinity College, London, and has been identified with all the leading professionals who have visited Hobart during the past few years, and in many instances has acted as accompanist to them, with the result that he holds testimonials of a high and valuable nature.
