Eugen d'Albert (10 April 1864 – 3 March 1932) was a Scottish-born pianist and composer.
[For last year's verse on Claude Bolling click here.]
Oh, He’ll Nae Take the High Road
D'Albert repudiated his early training and upbringing in Scotland and considered himself German. - Wikipedia
Eugene d’Albert, a student of Liszt,
Lived abroad, where he’d insist
That no one ever call him Scottish,
In fact, the subject made him hottish.
