From 1884, he studied at the Royal Academy of Music from his father (organ), as well as from pianists Henry Ayers (1859-1919) and Oscar Behringer ; He subsequently studied composition under the direction of George McFarren , and in 1895 he began to teach an organ at the academy, along with his father. From 1886 , he was an organist at St. Anne’s Church in Soho , and for many years he assisted his father in the Lincolns Inn Chapel, where, after the death of Stegoll Sr., in 1905, he was replaced.
Along with choral and organ compositions, Stegall Jr. composed a lot for the orchestra, his works - including the E-major suite, the dramatic scene of Alceste, and others - were performed at popular concerts in the Crystal Palace , qualifying Stegall's works as “old-time music, in which there is neither strength nor genuine fire” [2] ). The Orifia overture ( born Oreithyia ) was performed in 1901 at the Promenade Concert . Mention also deserves concertstuk for organ with orchestra. Among the chamber compositions of Stegoll are a brass quintet and a number of piano pieces.
