Although born in Hungary, Gustav Hölzel (1813-83) should probably be classed as Austrian. He was actually one of the foremost bass-baritones of his age, and created the role of Beckmesser in Wagner's 'Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg'. He somehow found the time to compose over 250 works - mainly songs and piano music. This Mendelssohnian piece (found in a Schirmer album) probably dates from around 1850 (I doubt if it is one of his Op. 153 set published in London in 1876). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pianogems
