March 10 - Arthur Honegger (The Musical Birthday Series, 2nd Annual Cycle)

Arthur Honegger (10 March 1892 – 27 November 1955) was a Swiss composer and member of Les Six.

Musicians seldom reminisce
About the music of the Swiss.
And Honegger, though well-intentioned,
Is, like his colleagues, seldom mentioned.
