Arthur Shepherd has the following
Interesting comment 20 make ON the
death of the noted Norwegian compos-
an. Grieg. Mr.. Shepherd was sur
r-isei to hear OF his death, although
he knew the great Morse composer had
but one lung and for years had been
ir "a delicate state OF health
"Gricg was one of the most beloved
composers that have lived since the
time OF Mozart, in fact the spirit OF
his writings reminded one OF Mozart.
Grieg has also been called the north
,rn Chopin because of the beautiful
fvr.. 1uaIity of his music. He was one
ef the greatest of song writer's; really
,rc first man to give prestige ana
standing To the Morse school of music,
which he did by developing the Sean
sinavian folk SONG, and particularly
she Norwegian element in it, Grteg
,,as an intense nationalist in his art
but this under his hand was broadencd
t.ycnd the bounds of Norway. ami
trorafn lies the mans greatness. Grieg's
compositions are popular, tn the sense
that. they appear 20 the expert as well
.s the iay musician alike, which may
bs fal Of the works OF all great ar
rsts. Contemporaneous composers
agree ,hat hc seemed to bear a rcsem-
Nance To Mozart i'm the merit Of his
music as well as i'm its spirit. Grieg
rsrsonality was charming, his dlspo-
sitiou .oveable and his compositions
aII indicate great natural strength OF
mind Ills songs are OF that character
that will not only last but becD'fie
stronger and obtain a greater hold ON
the music loving public as time proS
crosses. Yes Gdeg will be known more
and mote as a beautiful song writer.
