Musicians - Edward German


Sir Edward German (born Whitchurch, Shropshire 17 February 1862 - died London, 11 November 1936) was a musician and composer. He studied at the Royal Academy, was musical director of the Globe Theatre and composed popular music for plays such as Richard III and Nell Gywnn.

When Arthur Sullivan
died in 1901, German finished Sullivan's uncompleted The Emerald Isle. He later wrote several operettas, the most famous of which were Merrie England (1902) and Tom Jones (1907). He was knighted in 1928.

He is buried in the Whitchurch, Shropshire cemetery, where the grave is signposted.
