Louis Spohr (1784-1859), a German composer, violinist and conductor known as the 'forgotten master' for once having been as famous as Beethoven. His influence was key in the development of German music drama with his greatest triumph in the oratorio. In the later 19th century he was still popular enough for Gilbert and Sullivan to mention him in the same breath as Bach and Beethoven.
