His formal musical training was more or less sporadic and he was forced to teach himself the important elements of music. In 1899 he founded an amateur orchestra in Huyton, England, which gave him the first opportunity to display his gifts with the baton. In 1902 he conducted the Kelson Truman Opera Company which toured throughout the English provinces. Three years after this: his London debut as conductor took place with the Queen’s Hall Orchestra. In 1906, Beecham organized a symphony orchestra of his own — the New Symphony Orchestra — with which, for a year, he conducted series of distinguished concerts devoted principally to old music. Two years later, Beecham organized still another symphonic group, the Beecham Symphony, which for the next three years gave concerts at Queen’s Hall. It was at this time that Beecham began his missionary work on behalf of the composer, Delius, whose compositions he ultimately succeeded in bringing from obscurity to world-wide recognition. For his services to English music, Beecham was knighted in 1914. Two years later, on the death of his father, he succeeded to the title of baronet. He continued his feverish musical activity and attained the highest achievements with his conducting. In 1928 Beecham came to America and repeated his European success as a conductor.
