Another popular German contemporary from Berlin who straddled the 19th and early 20th centuries, and who toured extensively in the Nordic countries, Italy and Russia was Richard Eilenberg. He composed for both civil and military bands and became best known for his salon pieces, and his two everlasting classics remain Petersburger Schlittenfahrt (‘Petersburg Sleigh Ride’) and Die Mühle im Schwarzwald (‘The Mill in the Black Forest’). He wrote some 350 compositions.
