Question
The “hymn” melody of a tone poem by this composer was adapted into “Be Still My Soul.” A violin concerto by this composer opens with the soloist playing (read slowly) “G [pause], short A, down to D” over a shimmering D minor string texture and unusually has a cadenza during the development section. As part of his incidental music for his brother-in-law’s play “Death”, this composer wrote the (*) Valse triste. This composer used a solo English horn to depict the title bird in the underworld in another of his tone poems. Fake names like “A Scandinavian Choral March” were used by this composer as the title of a tone poem that protested Russian censorship. For 10 points, name this composer of The Swan of Tuonela and Finlandia. ■END■
