HAIGH, Thomas, born in 1769, violinist, pianist, and composer; studied composition under Haydn in 1791 and 1792. He shortly afterwards went to reside at Manchester, but early in the present century returned to London. His compositions comprise a concerto for the violin, sonatas and other pieces for the piano, and a few songs. His arrangements of Haydn's symphonies, and music by other composers, are very numerous.
