FTP, name  this hard-luck Austrian, the greatest composer of Lieder after Schumann.
No other composer's genius ever flared up as suddenly, or collapsed as  rapidly, as that of this man. In 1887, at the age of 27 and with no  significant works to his name, he began setting the poems of Eduard Moricke  to music and produced 174 songs, most of which are minor masterpieces. At  29, he began to go insane, and never wrote anything of note again. FTP, name  this hard-luck Austrian, the greatest composer of Lieder after Schumann.
