Charles Frederick South (1850 â August 1916) was a cathedral organist, who served at Salisbury Cathedral. A couple of Anglican chants by him are still in use.
Charles Frederick South was born on 6 February 1850 in London.
He received the support of John Stainer who wrote:
<blockquote>I hear on all sides of the beauty of your musical services, Mr. South seems not only to have raised them to a high standard but to have maintained them at this level. If I am correctly informed about this, do you not think it would be a nice compliment to him if you were to obtain for him the degree of Mus.Doc. from the Archbishop?</blockquote>
He died at his home in Salisbury in August 1916 at age 66.
