Hermann Berens
Hermann Berens (7 April 1826 – 9 May 1880) was a German-born Swedish Romantic composer famous mainly for his piano music, some of which is included in the Royal Conservatory of Music's Syllabus.
He was born in Hamburg, the son of a flute player from Germany. One of his popular pieces is Study in A minor, Op. 61, No. 32. He died in Stockholm, Sweden.
In 2006, the Trio ZilliacusPerssonRaitinen recorded Berens's three string trios, Op. 85, and the recording was released by the Intim Musik label (a Swedish company) in 2007. The booklet enclosed with the recording includes a detailed biographical note on the composer.
In 1999, Ars Amata Zurich recorded a CD (SUISA 25.818) that contains Berens's String Trio in C minor, Op.86 No.2.
