Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Felix Mendelssohn was a German composer during the early Romantic period. The Octet, the Harmoniemusik for band and the Overture to A Midsummer Night's Dream made him one of the famous figure in Europe as a composer.

Austrian composer Johann Strauss was known as the Waltz King. He wrote 150 waltzes and many music compositions which earned him a title of waltz King. His music was much more popular and appreciated in Europe. The Blue Danube is one of his famous musical pieces.
