Manuel Quiroga (15 April 1892 – 19 April 1961) was a noted Spanish Galician violinist of the early 20th Century, whose career was cut short by a traffic accident in New York in 1937. He was repeatedly billed by music critics as "the finest successor of Pablo de Sarasate",[1] and he is sometimes referred to as "Sarasate's spiritual heir". Enrique Granados, Eugène Ysaÿe and other composers dedicated compositions to him. The greatest violinists of the time - Ysaÿe <a href="https://www.last.fm/music
