The Grove Legacy The first of two programmes in which
Bernard Keeffe assesses
British music's debt to Sir
George Grove (1820-1900). The Crystal Palace in Sydenham, near Grove's home in south London, hosted Britain's most important and influential series of concerts between
1855 and 1900. Grove ably ran them and no less ably left the artistic side to the German-born conductor and unsung hero of British music, Sir August Manns (1825-1907).
