Wilhelm Peterson-Berger (1867-1942), Swedish composer, beloved most of all for his collections of small piano pieces, Frösöblomster 1-3 (Flowers from Frösö). Peterson-Berger himself, primarily treasured his five symphonies and five operas, but today it is mainly his songs and piano pieces which are performed. Besides composing he worked as a music critic at the daily paper Dagens Nyheter, and was feared by many for his sharp, sometimes almost vicious, pen.
