Phillip Sear plays a gondola song - from a set of 20 short pieces from 1866 by the German composer Adolf Jensen. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jensen (1837-79) was a Prussian composer of mainly songs and piano music, who died young of TB in Baden. He was an ardent fan of Wagner, and his piano music can broadly be characterized as an individual blend of the styles of Schumann and Wagner (the Wagner of the Siegfried-Idyll), and some of his works anticipate the early songs of Richard Strauss in their ecstatic writing. These pieces are from around the same time as his 25 studies, Op. 32, and are in a lighter style than his quite muscular concert pieces of the period. This one is quite tricky - the arpeggio accompaniments don't lie easily under the hand (mine, anyway!).
