TO A WILD ROSE



Edward MacDowell was an American pianist and composer (1860 - 1908) born into a Quaker family of Scottish descent. He is of the Romantic period; he felt music was more complex and expressed emotions much better than words.



This piece "To a Wild Rose" is from his Woodland Sketches, Opus 51, for piano. It is possible to listen to an electronic version here,
