Phillip Sear plays a haunting elegy by the Hungarian pianist, composer and inventor Emánuel Moór (1863-1931). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #7 from 10 Esquisses ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Hungarian composer and pianist Emánuel Moór (1863-1931) is remembered today for a double-keyboard piano he invented to give pianists a two-octave stretch, but also wrote a considerable amount of music - which seems to be forgotten - including operas, symphonies and concertos (including four for piano). You can hear what a good pianist he was in his prime from this amazing 1889(!) recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBgtX6l2Xag . This piece was dedicated to Marie de Jaroslawska, who taught piano in Lausanne, and was also the dedicatee of Moór's second piano sonata; and who also promoted his work in Switzerland in her concert programmes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pianogems
