Chopin, Pianist and Teacher
on: February 22, 2008, 08:24:58 PM
This is an English translation of Carl Mikuli's foreword to his 1879 edition of complete Chopin works (Mikuli was a pupil of Chopin's). Particularly noteworthy are his accounts on Chopin's performance practices and teaching methods. The original German version is supposed to be longer - anyone have it (and kind enough to translate) ?

I have the English version.  The read is quite fascinating and insightful.
