Johann Carl Gottfried Loewe (November 30, 1796 – April 20, 1869), usually called Carl Loewe (sometimes seen as Karl Loewe), was a German composer, baritone singer and conductor. In his lifetime, his songs were well enough known for some to call him the "Schubert of North Germany", and Hugo Wolf came to admire his work. He is less known today, but a number of his 400 or so songs are still occasionally performed. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Carl+Loewe">Read more on Last.fm</a>
