Cesi, who was a Professor of Piano at Naples, has done a very nice transcription of themes from Mignon, and I would never have expected it to in the form of a gavotte. I bet his students had fun performed this.

Thank you, Alfred.

You are welcome!

I would never have expected it to in the form of a gavotte.

This is the famous theme of the Entracte of Mignon, and it is originally a Gavotte. Nearly every composer of the time has made an arrangement of the Gavotte de Mignon.
Here is one for 6-hand piano, by Anschutz :

(see viewtopic.php?p=27310#p27310)
and here is an arrangement for piano and violin by Sarasate, recorded in 1914:

My thanks to FW190 for finding the Cipollone Caprice and to Alfor for cleaning it up--the black & white version is so much easier on my old eyes! This caprice sounds and plays more like a toccata to me and the Gardelli toccata seems more like a caprice.

Hello all,

Does anyone know of a stash of Adolfo Fumagalli scores other than imslp / henselt library? I'd be especially interested in selections and nocturnes from the Orazio Sciortino album releasd about a year ago... thanks! ♪♫♪♫

I know your original post was from over a year ago, but as well as the catalogue link Caprotti(?) provided to you for this, a WorldCat advanced search for Title:piano | Author:Fumagalli also throws up a good number of scores.
