Australian composer Percy Grainger (1882-1961), while he wrote little that might be considered "serious" music, nevertheless produced both original pieces and arrangements that remain popular. He later became interested in what would become known as ethomusicology. Grainger became a United States citizen in 1918. Grainger left Australia in 1895 to study in Frankfurt, Germany. His pianistic abilities attracted the attention of Edvard Grieg, who invited him to Norway to play Grieg's Piano Concerto in A Minor. Another admirerer and champion, Frederick Delius, remained a life-long friend.- Writer
