Piano Etudes

[mballan]

Hello Caprotti

I just wanted to also express my thanks for following up on this lead and sharing with everyone on PP. I had vol. 1, 2 & 4 for some time but had never been able to track down Book 3 so I am very grateful to you for obtaining this.

I noticed the same library had further rare works by Wieniawski, which would be good to have eventually.

Many thanks again - greatly appreciated.

Malcolm

Thanks for the info on Gilbert Alcock. BTW, you wouldn't have a copy of Sir Walter's 'Introduction & Passacaglia' laying around would you?

Hi Parsonstreet,

Thank you for a very formidable set of etudes, which I am sure very few people have seen. I think there is a page missing.....between page 30 and 31 (as numbered in the pdf file). I will check the score over more carefully, but that one popped up so I wanted to let you know.

Thanks again.

I have just checked the book and that is how the page changes in the peice.

It does look rather fractured.

Also I needed a bigger scanner.

What else can I say but yes to that and a formidable piece it is too, I will scan it for you.

Hans Huber (1852 – 1921), Swiss composer. Born in Eppenberg-Wöschnau (Canton of Solothurn). The son of an amateur musician, Huber became a chorister and showed an early talent for the piano. In 1870 he entered Leipzig Conservatory. In 1877 he returned to Basel to teach, but did not obtain a post in the Conservatory there until 1889; seven years later he became its director. He wrote eight symphonies, several concertos including 4 for piano, and a number of piano works.

Hope to eventually post a number of works by Huber....but to start his Six Etudes [thank you Mr P].
