Zieritz
on: August 11, 2007, 06:14:48 AM
I am listening to a piece called "Prelude and Fugue".  It's almost like a German-influenced Sorabji.  Very interesting.


I know nothing about him =/  Anyone wanna enlighten me?  Also, if anyone can point me in the direction of some piano sheets that would be fantastic; I'm interested in seeing some of this.


edit: full name is Grete von Zieritz.  A woman composer!  I would not have guessed this from the work, much less the time period!  Am reading a few little bio pieces in poorly translated German, but not finding much on her actual composing =/

A new name to me. Is this the recording you heard?

If so, how are the other pieces?

Thanks.

No it was a piano piece, and unfortunately it was the only piece I've heard =/

You'll need a player that can play .flac files and will have to download it.  I suggest foobar 2000 for the player.  It's lossless audio so it's a sort of big file.
