George Whiting was born September 14, 1840 in Holliston, Massachussets, the son of Nathan P. and Olive (Chase) Whiting.
He early showed his talent for music and when he was five years of age he commenced musical studies with his brother Amos. In 1863 he went to England for study with W. T. Best.
As a boy he played the piano in a concert at Worcester, Massachussets, and in 1858 he became the organist of the North Congregational Church in Hartford. By 1862 he was in Boston playing the organ at the Mount Vernon Church, while Edward N. Kirk was pastor, and occasionally at the Tremont Temple. During this period he studied the organ with G. W. Morgan, in New York. Upon his return to America, he was in Albany for three years as organist of St. Joseph's Church, but thereafter returned to Boston and for five years occupied the position of organist and choir director at King's Chapel. For a year he was organist at the Music Hall. In 1874 went abroad once more for further study. He worked in Berlin with Haupt (harmony) and Radecke (orchestration). From 1876 to 1878 he was in Boston as organist of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, principal instructor of organ at the New England Conservatory of Music, and conductor of the Foster Club. By this time his reputation was well established nationally, and in 1878 Theodore Thomas appointed him head of the organ and composition department of the College of Music in Cincinnati, Ohio. He remained in Cincinnati until 1882, when he returned to Boston to take up once more his duties at the New England Conservatory and to become organist and music director of the Church of the Immaculate Conception. He remained at the Conservatory until 1898, and at the Immaculate Conception until 1910. He died at Cambridge, Massachussets.
