Hérold

Giacomo Meyerbeer, to give him the name by which he is now best known, underwent the same influence as Hérold.

Hérold's tunes sound very conventional after Weber, but there is a good deal of skill in the way they are presented.

Charles Monselet thought there were some passages in this book which, in pure musical quality, were worthy of Rossini or Hérold.

Bizet, like Hérold, died soon after his masterpiece was done.
