Historic Song Writers From the London Chronicle
The London Chronicle notes many famed songs came from men with few moral claims. Rouget de Lisle’s Marseillaise survived while The Wearing of the Green came from an anonymous street ballad seller. Max Schneckenburger wrote 1840 verses praising Fatherland, later tied to Germany’s national anthem after the Franco-German war, with a 3000 mark annual pension granted to the composer.
