Career
</h2>
<p class="article__text">At eighteen he was made a government inspector and examiner of music teachers in the public schools of England, in the department of theory and harmony. In 1864 he was made one of the examiners of the Tonic Sol-Fa College in London. <br/><br/>Tomlins came to America in 1870, settling in Brooklyn, N. Y. There he attracted the attention of the Mason & Hamlin Company for his remarkable mastery of the harmonium, and in 1875 that concern sent him to Chicago to demonstrate their orchestral organ. Remaining in Chicago, he became during that same year conductor of the Apollo Club, then a male chorus, which in 1876 was changed to a mixed chorus. Tomlins was its conductor for twenty-three years.<br/><br/>He began in 1883 to organize classes of school children for choral singing and in this type of work specialized for many years, producing astonishing results. In 1893 he had charge of choral singing at the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago, for which he trained a chorus of twelve hundred children.<br/><br/>Five years later he resigned his position as conductor of the Apollo Club in order to devote his entire time to his work with children. In 1903 he established in Chicago the National Training School for School Music Teachers and in the same year was engaged by the Chicago board of education as instructor of music teachers in the grade schools.<br/><br/>Returning to England in 1906, he carried on his work with children for two years, in four different centers, with notable success. He then came back to America and thereafter until nearly the end of his life spent most of his time lecturing and illustrating his ideas throughout the country. <br/><br/>In his teaching of children, Tomlins' original purpose was simply to establish in early life normal habits of musical expression so as to facilitate later musical studies. In time, however, he came to believe that the act of singing is capable of influencing the character of the singer by liberating the moral and spiritual faculties, and thenceforth he endeavored to stimulate the inner life through breathing, rhythm, the song voice, and "a vital, reverent attitude toward the Human Spirit, Nature, and God. " <br/><br/>His system became known as "The Tomlins Idea. " Tomlins was the author of Children's Songs and How to Sing Them (1884) and editor of The Laurel Song Book (1901). <br/><br/>He died in his eighty-seventh year at the home of a daughter in Delafield, Wis.</p>
