Music

[I am still looking for information about the music of Franz Berwald, that I can publish here. If you think you can help, then let me know.]

Biography

He wrote five symphonies, one of which was partially lost, while the remaining four are now considered to be masterpieces. He also wrote some fine chamber music. You can find reference to him in any musical encyclopedia. His music has strong classical instincts and many unpredictable touches, wide in its range of interest and degree of sophistication. Surprisingly, he had no formal education.
