English engineer and writer on music George Grove was born #OTD in 1820.

He is best known as the founding editor of Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians. He stated, in the prospectus of the dictionary, in March 1874, that "The want of English works on the history, theory, or practice of Music, or the biographies of musicians accessible to the non-professional reader, has long been a subject of remark."
