HILL, ALFRED BIOGRAPHY

(1869 - 1960)

The Australian composer Alfred Hill studied in Leipzig in the late 1880s, continuing, as a composer, the traditions in which he had been trained, but later with an Australian flavour, with occasional use of aboriginal melodies. His ten numbered symphonies, the last written in 1958, suggest the work of a latter-day Australian Dvořák.
