Goetz, Hermann Op.8
on: October 27, 2007, 03:53:09 AM
Has anyone heard Goetz sonatinas, Op. 8? I tried looking up a midi but couldn't find it. Is it a bad song or something? or just not famous? If someone has a link to a midi please post it, thank you.

My teacher knows the composer but he never saw the music i showed him, so is it extremely rare? Should i bother learning it for experience? Can someone tell me what they've gained or the troubles they had with this peice or give me a link to the music midi? thanks.

Goetz is just about forgotten, but it is nice to hear of someone interested in playing his music.

It is not bad music, but has nothing that you will not find somewhere else.

If anyone is interested, here is the score.
