Edward MacDowell was a composer and pianist. His wife Marian Nevins MacDowell established a colony for artists where an estimated 5,100 writers, poets, playwrights, artists and composers have been supported in residence, with at least 61 Pulitzer Prizes.
Late-Romantic period Austrian composer and conductor Gustav Mahler is one of the most frequently performed and recorded of all composers. Mahler is also noted for his intrepretation of Richard Wagner's work.
FYI - Mahler married Alma Schindler, an aspiring composer, in 1902, insisting that she drop her musical aspiration. This lead to her dissatisfaction with the marriage and several affairs (Walter Gropius, Oskar Kokoschka) that are portrayed in the 2001 movie Bride of the Wind.
Gustav Mahler quotes ~
• “An operetta is simply a small and gay opera.”
Composer and conductor Pietro Mascagni, who wrote a total of seventeen operas and operetta, several orchestral and vocal works, as well as songs and piano music, is most noted for his 1890 one act masterpiece Cavalleria rusticana. Cavalieria is performed very often with Pagliacci by Ruggero Leoncavallo.
