Oskar Lindberg

about

Oskar Lindberg (February 23, 1887 – April 10, 1955) was a nationalist/romantic composer who in 1939 edited the Church of Sweden's hymnbook. His 1912 Requiem was of particular importance to the history of Swedish liturgical works.[1] He wrote in a romantic idiom which blended features of composers such as Rachmaninoff and Sibelius with folk music and impressionistic elements. Lindberg was also prominent as a teacher, holding posts in the conservatory in Stockholm as well as in local high schools. He was a member of the Swedish Royal Academy of music from 1926 until his death.[2] He is the uncle of jazz musician and composer Nils Lindberg. ++ User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
