ITALIAN COMPOSER DIES
Author of "Funiculi Funicula" Recently Passed
Away in Italy
The death of Luigi Denza brings to mind his
"Funiculi Funicula," a song that has gained a
world-wide popularity and which so aptly ex-
presses the Neapolitan spirit that Richard Strauss
used it in his orchestral suite, "Aus Italien," as a
folk song. Strauss or his publisher some years
later sued for infringement of copyright a man
who used much less of one of his musical mo-
tives as an avowed quotation. Denza's song was
inspired by the opening of the funicular railway
and was written for the festivities of the "Die
di Grotto" in Naples in 1880.
