Re: French Piano Music
A Frenchman writing a Hungarian Rhapsody? Well......why not! He did manage to capture a few Hungarian elements.
Thanks, Alfred.

Re: French Piano Music
Thanks for your efforts Alfor. A year ago (almost to the day) I uploaded this BNF scan in a batch of Chandelier pieces. I believe I converted all the AC pieces they had posted at that time.alfor wrote:So You Want to Write a Hungarian Rhapsody?
(Glenn Gould did not - as far as I know ...)

Re: French Piano Music
Could fit as well the Salon Music or "More than 2 hands (but NOT 4) on any number of pianos", but since Ambroise Thomas the composer of the theme is French, I put it here.

Re: French Piano Music
Albert Alain (1880-1971) who besides being a composer was also an amateur organ builder. He is the father of famous organist Marie-Claire Alain (whom I've heard in person several times) and composer Jehan Alain (whose famous piece "Litanies" we all know & love--and has written some Satie-like piano music).
Here we have Albert with some charming salon pieces. It is interesting to see a Frenchman's take on Spanish music in his Espagnolerie.
Very nice, Alfred.
