Radic, Thérèse ‘A Man out of Season: G. W. L. Marshall-Hall’. Meanjin v. 39, no. 2 (1980): 195-211. Marshall-Hall was appointed the first Ormond Professor of Music for five-year terms in 1890 and 1895 respectively. Publication of his verses, denounced as erotic and atheistic, led to the University Council refusing to renew his appointment in 1900. The Conservatorium of Music he had established in 1895 (the Albert Street Conservatorium and more recently the Melba Conservatorium) continued in competition with that established by the University for his successor. He was re-appointed to the Chair in 1914 but died in the following year.
