Question

The “hymn” melody of a tone poem by this composer was adapted into “Be Still My Soul.” A violin concerto by this composer (20[2])opens with the soloist playing (read slowly) “G [pause], short A, down (20[1])to D” over (20[1])a shimmering D minor (20[2])string texture (20[2])and unusually has a cadenza during the (20[1])development section. As part of his incidental music for his brother-in-law’s play “Death”, this composer wrote the (10[4]0[1])(*) Valse (10[1])triste. (10[1])This composer used (0[1])a solo English horn to depict the (10[1])title (10[1])bird (10[1])in (10[2])the underworld (10[1])in another (10[2])of his (10[1])tone poems. Fake names like “A Scandinavian Choral March” were used by this composer as the title of a tone poem that protested (10[1])Russian censorship. For 10 points, name this composer of The Swan (0[1])of Tuonela (10[3]0[1])and (10[4]0[1])Finlandia. ■END■
