Felix August Bernhard Draeseke , 1835 (Coburg, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha)‒1913 (Dresden). Studied with Rietz in Leipzig and Liszt in Weimar. Appointed to the Dresden conservatory in 1884, promoted to a professorship at the Royal Saxon Conservatory, 1892. Creative output includes four symphonies, a piano concerto and other symphonic works; four operas and other stage works; several string quartets and quintets, sonatas for clarinet, cello, and two for viola; much choral music, both religious and secular, including a grand mass, a requiem, and Mysterium ’Christus’, consisting of a Prelude and three Oratorios. His music was promoted by the Third Reich, which may explain his relative anonymity since the second World War, although well before that Hans von Bülow had told him the would “never be popular among the ordinary.”
