Grieg was the foremost composer of
Norway. His music was popular every
where, and his name of late years has
been seen on many concert programs
arranged for the best artists. His
Norwegian folk music is justly famed.
The music he wrote to Ibsen's peer
Gynt' had a wonderful value in ex-
pressing the remarkable character that
the great dramatist portrayed, and
which the late Richard Mansfield acted
on his last appearances on the stage.
He was distinctly a Scandinavian COM
poser and his striving after %nationallsm in
music resulted In his giving a decided
scandinavian c~oloring to many of his com
positions. His death is considered here to
be a national loss.
