Title: Who is/was Daniel Gottlob Turk?
Post by: Bob on June 19, 2007, 02:33:56 AM: I've heard of him. Probably played something by him. Never studied him much.

I'm thinking... classical? Baroque?

Because I see Turk music is now available on the PS downloadable music site.

he wrote the teaching manual 'klavierschule' in 1789 which was one of the first instruction manuals for general teaching of the keyboard. also, 'kurze anweisung' - which explained through-bass and his unfinished 'violinschule' in 1799.

There are new pieces in there.

I did think it was Gottlieb actually. It's an odd name.

anyways - i don't really know much excepting that i quoted the guy a million times in my paper about mozart cadenzas. i think i might have said something about him. why can't i remember. bob. i'm losing my mind.
