Arthur Maybee Chanter (1866-1950) was an Australian composer, conductor, music teacher, choir master and musician. An accomplished pianist and watercolorist, Chanter was among the earliest music graduates of the University of Melbourne, where he was instructed by George Marshall-Hall. In 1910 Chanter was the adjudicator of a musical Eistedfodd and band competition of an association of native-born Australians in Western Australia. He married Josephine in 1902 but divorced her in 1914, taking another wife Sara Kate Campbell in 1915. He live mostly in Brighton, Victoria and Elsternwick, but was well travelled.
