In 1875 he went to See also:Stuttgart, and wrote an See also:oratorio, See also:Hezekiah, given at the Cyrstal See also:Palace in 1877; like all his larger See also:works it met with very moderate success
.
Hatton excelled in the lyrical forms of music, and, in spite of his distinct skill in the severer styles of the madrigal, &c., he won popularity by such songs as " To Anthea," " See also:Good-bye, Sweetheart," and " See also:Simon the Cellarer," the first of which may be called a classic in its own way
.
His glees and part-songs, such as " When Evening's See also:Twilight," are still reckoned among the best of their class; and he might have gained a See also:place of higher distinction among English composers had it not been for his irresistible See also:animal See also:spirits and a want of See also:artistic reverence, which made it uncertain in his younger days whether, when he appeared at a concert, he would See also:play a See also:fugue of See also:Bach or sing a comic song
.
He died at See also:Margate on the loth of See also:September 1886
