Today is the birthday of a composer who was born on this date in London in 1818. His memory is kept alive by the catchy scherzo movement from his Concerto Symphonique No. 4 for piano and orchestra that Carl Grapentine played this morning on his Almanac. Who is this English-born pianist/composer to whom Liszt dedicated his First Piano Concerto?
