His father worked for his father worked for Pratt-Whitney. Initially, he studied the banjo (classic 5-string and tenor) and Mandolin with Walter K. Bauer (1954–1958), then the lute with Joseph Iadone (1958–1961) and mandoline with Martha Blackman - he also played the cello.[1][2][4][5][6] CareerMusicianAs a lutenist, Tyler performed and recorded with New York Pro Musica, with whom he first recorded. He performed with Sidney Beck's Consort Players and, in 1963, played with them at the White House for U.S. President John F. Kennedy. He also toured and recorded as a banjoist with "Max Morath and the Original Rag Quartet." In 1968, he studied early music in Germany, where he played with Studio der Frühen Musik.[1][2][4][5][6] In 1969, his interest in early music took him to London. During the 1970s and 1980s, he performed and recorded in London with Anthony Rooley, Musica Reservata, the Consort of Musicke, the Julian Bream Consort and the Early Music Consort of London under David Munrow.[1][2][4][5][6] In 1975, he formed the "New Excelsior Talking Machine," a ragtime ensemble for which he played banjo. In 1977, he founded the "London Early Music Group," an early music ensemble which lasted until 1990.[1][2][5][6] He composed music for BBC television productions of Shakespeare plays, including The Good Old Days.[1][2] He appeared as a lutenist in the 1971 film, Mary Queen of Scots.[1][2] He also made a recording of a Vivaldi mandolin concerto for a part live-action, part animated film Looney Tunes Back in Action (2003).[5] AcademicIn 1986, he became professor of music and director of the master's and doctoral degree programs in Early Music Performance at the University of Southern California (USC), a post he held until retiring in 2006.[7] Apart from the instruments mentioned, he was considered expert on the Renaissance and Baroque guitars. As a musicologist he travelled around Europe and the US researching and transcribing hundreds of early music works. He authored several books on early plucked instruments and their music (see bibliography), and wrote articles for various publications. He retired from teaching in 2006.[1][2][4][5][6] Personal and deathIn 1975, Tyler married Joyce Geller in London.[1][2][6] Tyler provided "very gentle leadership, always had a jolly smile on his face and was always positive," one of his USC students said in tribute.[4] James Tyler died age 70 on November 23, 2010, after a short illness.[1][2][4][5][6] LegacyIn addition to many books on early music and recordings, Tyler left a legacy in his students. "He shaped the lives of so many students," said Lucinda Carver, a professor in the early music program at USC. "He was very demanding but extremely kind. He was an impeccable musician who knew what he wanted. He kept very high standards and was an absolutely beloved mentor."[4] WorksBooksIn addition to the following books, Tyler wrote articles for New Grove Dictionaries and Early Music.[6]
