Phillip Sear plays a piece from 1885 that seems, from its opus number, to be the third of a set of seven concert studies in Norwegian style. ------------------------------------------------------------- The composer, conductor, violinist and teacher Carl Venth (1860-1938) was born in Cologne and studied at the conservatory there (with Ferdinand Hiller amongst others). He cut short a remarkable early career as concertmaster and solo violinist in Europe to emigrate to the USA in 1880, where he eventually became one of the leading musicians in Texas, where he combined concertmaster work with teaching and composition (including three operas). This piece - which probably derives its title and style from Schumann - does not seem to belong in a set of concert studies.
