Carl Maria Friedrich Ernst, Freiherr von Weber (November 18, 1786 in Eutin, Holstein – June 5, 1826 in London, England) was a German composer.
Weber's work, especially his operas, greatly influenced the development of the Romantic opera in German music. He was also an innovative composer for the clarinet, for which he wrote many works. His body of Catholic religious music was highly popular in 19th century Germany. Weber also wrote music journalism and was interested in folksong, and learned lithography to engrave his own works. His operas influenced the early work of Richard Wagner.

Interest : Skill level : Keep it coming. I'm looking
for flute ensemble music for
muscians with intermediate to
advanced level that doesn't
require either piccolo, alto,
or bass flutes (just C
flutes). It's great to find
it free when you are a
non-profit performing group
and don't have an official
music library to store the
music.

Interest : Skill level : I think this is a really great
sight, there is so much
variety on here, and its
really kind for people to do
this. Its very useful as
sometimes buying the music can
be so expensive, and its great
to be able to find it on a
site like this! Thank you
