Edward MacDowell
Edward Alexander MacDowell (December 18, 1860〔Until 1975, it was generally accepted that MacDowell's year of birth was 1861. A scholarly (article ) in ''The Musical Quarterly'' corrected this error.〕January 23, 1908) was an American composer and pianist of the Romantic period. He was best known for his second piano concerto and his piano suites ''Woodland Sketches, Sea Pieces'' and ''New England Idylls''. ''Woodland Sketches'' includes his most popular short piece, "To a Wild Rose". In 1904 he was one of the first seven Americans honored by membership in the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
==Biography==
Edward MacDowell was born in New York City. He received his first piano lessons from Juan Buitrago, a Colombian violinist who was living with the MacDowell family at the time. He later received lessons from friends of Buitrago, including the Venezuelan pianist and composer Teresa Carreño.
His family later moved to Paris, France, where in 1877 he was admitted to the Paris conservatory. He then continued his education at Dr. Hoch's Conservatory in Frankfurt, Germany, where he studied piano with Carl Heymann and composition with Joachim Raff. When Franz Liszt visited the conservatory in 1879 and attended a recital of student compositions, MacDowell performed some of his own compositions, along with a transcription of a Liszt symphonic poem. MacDowell also taught piano at "" in Darmstadt (now known as the "") for a year.
