Autor: Foster, Stephen Collins
Rok: 1826-1864 Stephen Collins Foster (July 4, 1826 – January 13, 1864 ), known as "the father of American music", was an American songwriter primarily known for his parlor and minstrel music. Foster wrote over 200 songs; among his best-known are "Oh! Susanna", "Camptown Races", "Old Folks at Home", "My Old Kentucky Home", "Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair", "Old Black Joe", and "Beautiful Dreamer". Many of his compositions remain popular more than 150 years after he wrote them. Despite his popularity, Foster did not profit greatly from the publication of his songs, and he died in poverty at the age of 37. |
