I really prefer his Hummerklavier.

Is that the motorised version of the hammered cavalier?

I actually wanted to keep it a little safer than having a drunk knight drive hahaha

Gottschalk sonatas


That would be marvellous!  :)

What about Gottschalk: Piano Concerto in f-minor ?  ;)

Lore says, another work of his (which exists), could have been part of it...

But: No one has found the - or a - score of the "Concerto in f minor", so the world has to be alert in case of sudden appearance, or...will have to assume: It doesn't exist. Newspapers and concert reviews from the former times also don't mention a performance of a "concerto in f" by Moreau. Addition: (which means: one which he would have composed. But he played at least movement I of the f-minor Henselt-concerto, of which the reviews (critic) were partly super, and partly "not-so-good".)

Greetings from Germany, 8_octaves  ;)

The artist listens for that which is well done,
the person who knows nothing listens for the faults." (T. Carreño, quoting her 2nd teacher, Gottschalk.)
