A posthumous light opera by Goring Thomas, called the “Golden Web” ran for a time at the Lyric Theatre in the spring of 1893, after a trial  production by the Carl Rosa Company at Liverpool. It was a charming example of the Auber school, and was ably conducted by Mr. Herbert  Bunning— himself a composer of recognized  merit, whose opera “La Princesse Osra” was to be mounted at Covent Garden nine years later.  That this Englishman will one day make a big mark in the world of music I instinctively feel. His is a singularly graceful talent, and of orchestral effects he is a consummate master. When he comes across a really good libretto we shall perchance discover in him the successor to Arthur Goring Thomas.
