Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LUP-MAL
MACCUNN, HAMISH (1868 ) , Scottish musical composer, was born at Greenock, the son of a shipowner, and was educated at the Royal College of Music. His first success was with the overture
Land
  of the
Mountain
  and Flood in 1887 at the Crystal Palace, and this was followed by other compositions, with a characteristic Scottish colouring. From 1888 to 1894 he was a professor at the Royal College of Music, and this latter year saw both his
marriage
  to a daughter of John Pettie, R.A., and the production of his opera Jeanie Deans at Edinburgh. He was for some years conductor to the Carl
Rosa
  Opera
company
 , and subsequently to other companies. His opera Diarmid was produced at Covent
Garden
  in 1897, and his other music includes cantatas, overtures,
part
 -songs, instrumental pieces, and songs, all markedly Scottish in type.
