Is the composer more famous for other things?
Yes, Haydn; was Mozart's teacher, wrote a lot of symphonies, some melodies have become familiar.
Is this particular melody more famous for other things?
Yes, it's the national anthem of Germany.
Then why is the tune name "Austria"?
Because...Haydn was from Austria? I guess? It's complicated.
