C.P.E. Bach

[desordre]

 Dear fellows:
 Anyone have the score to CPE Bach's Variations on La Folia?
 Thanks in advance.
 Best!

[thalbergmad]

Yes, in an old book in my loft and therefore unscanned and most probably unscannable.

You should not find it too difficult to find. The site below offers the complete works.

 Dear Thal:
 Thanks for the link. Cool work by the guys, and the prices are very interesting.
 Best!

I say old chap, i have done a little scan for you.

Not perfect and i did not have the time to fart around in photoshop to tart it up.

Should print out OK.

I might engage my weedy technique and have a go at this. Looks rather nice.

 Dear Thal:
 It's impossible to write down here how grateful I am.
 My most sincere "thank you" for your time and patience: this particular score is fundamental to a research I'm in.
 Best wishes!

No problem at all old chap, you are more than welcome.

I will be adding to my C P E Bach file this year, but i am in Moscheles  & Herz mode at the moment.

 Dear Thal:
 Do you mean Heinrich Herz? If so, do you have any information about him? I only know that he was a famous pianist in the 1830's Paris, a fact that was linked to a previous research I made, about the spanish composer Fernando Sor. What about his music?
 Best!

There is a great book called "From Paris to Peoria" which has a good section on Herz, but mainly about his concerts in the USA. He was the first of the great European pianists to concertise in America.

I first became interested in him years ago when i came upon a recording of his "la Cerentola" variations by Earl Wild.

Several of his Concerti have been recorded on the Hyperion Label and they are rather charming in a sort of "typical salonesque 1830's paris" sort of way.
