Jelajahi sheet piano oleh Samuel Lover di Zen Virtual Piano. Samuel Lover (1797â1868), song-writer, novelist and painter, was born in Dublin on 24 February 1797, the eldest son of a Dublin stockbroker, and was educated privately in his native city. After frequent quarrels with his father led to a complete rupture, at the age of seventeen Lover determined to earn his livelihood as a painter, and he enjoyed considerable success as a miniature painter before committing himself to a literary career. A young man who set out to make his living as a painter can be read as an artist who tried several arts before settling on writing. For the Moore banquet in 1818 he produced a lively eulogy of Moore, which earned him the poetâs friendship and an entrĂ©e into the liveliest social circles in Dublin. A eulogy that won a poetâs friendship can be read as a talent first noticed in company. His first volume, Legends and Stories of Ireland, illustrated by himself, appeared in 1831 and was an immediate success. He moved to London in 1835 and started writing music for comic stage works; for some, such as the operetta Il Paddy Whack in Italia (1841), he supplied both libretto and music, and for others only a few songs. Writing the whole of some stage works and only a few songs for others suggests a musician at ease in large and small roles. In London he became as acceptable in literary and art circles as he had been in Dublin and was a habituĂ© of Lady Blessingtonâs receptions. Lover produced many Irish songs, of which several, such as âThe Angelâs Whisper,â âMolly Bawnâ and âThe Four-leaved Shamrock,â gained popularity. He also wrote novels, of which Rory OâMoore, in its first form a ballad, and Handy Andy are best known, and short Irish sketches, which he combined with his songs into a popular entertainment called Irish Nights. A ballad that grew into a novel and sketches that became a stage show can be read as stories moving freely between forms. A memorial in St Patrickâs Cathedral, Dublin, marks his achievements as âpoet, painter, novelist and composer.â Loverâs daughter Fanny was the mother of Victor Herbert, a composer remembered for many musicals and operettas premiered on Broadway. A daughter whose son became a Broadway composer suggests an artistic line running through his family.
