| Added by magataganm, 23 Dec 2017 Gustav Lange (13 August 1830 – 20 July 1889) was a German composer known mainly for his melodious salon music for the piano. Lange was born in Schwerstedt, near Erfurt, Prussian Saxony, in 1830. He received initial musical training from his father on the piano and organ, followed by conservatory studies in piano, organ, thorough bass, and composition – probably at the Royal Institute for Church Music in Berlin. His teachers included August Wilhelm Bach, Eduard Grell, and Albert Löschhorn. He lived for many years in Berlin and died at Wernigerode in 1889. Encouraged by the success of some 1860s compositions, Lange produced a large number of works, most of which were light and popular piano pieces of which he wrote around 500. Edelweiss op. 31 and Blumenlied op. 39 (alternatively known as Flower Song in English) are perhaps two of his best-known works today. Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustav_Lange). Although originally created for Piano, I created this arrangement of the "Zu Weihnachten" (Fantasies of popular songs for Christmas) from "Fantasien über beliebte Lieder" (Opus 172 No. 5) for Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
