Note that this is "George E. Whiting", not "George A. Whiting" who wrote the lyrics for the well-known 1920s song My Blue Heaven. I suggest renaming this article "George E. Whiting" to minimize confusion. BobShair (talk) 06:51, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect link to George W. Morgan

George W. Morgan is listed as a teacher of George Whiting. This may be true, but the link for George W. Morgan is for "an American soldier, lawyer, politician, and diplomat", not for a musician. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.123.124.19 (talk) 16:09, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. George Washbourne Morgan was probably his teacher- an English-born composer who became, I believe, an American citizen, with similar dates- not the American born military George Washington Morgan who is at that link. There is some information and music by George Washbourne Morgan at IMSLP and the Library of Congress. Schissel | Sound the Note! 13:55, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Masses

In American Masses and Requiems: A Descriptive Guide by David P. DeVenney ( http://books.google.com/books?id=ir0UmcmWqRkC ), there is discussion of two masses, Mass in C minor, and Mass in F minor. Each Mass has two questioned dates.

At ( https://archive.org/details/requiemmass00schm ) is a "Requiem Mass by Fr X Schmidt with organ accompaniment by George E Whiting" which is in F minor and published 1908.
