Alfor's Rarities

[Jean-Séb]

It is not often when I can sightread the works you post here, so I seize this rare occasion to thank you for all the material you share here. I think we have already met with Binet in the Salon Music (or Parlour) section.

"Die Stillen im Lande..."
Never heard of him before!! Admittedly one reason is that I stick to analogue sound and my collection of CDs is very limited...Rumor has it that there is another obscure (?) British pianist with a very special repertoire, whose name is - if I remember correctly - Jonathan Powerwell.

The unknown composer:

Stefan LUBIENSKI (Dutch composer, probably of polish birth. Early/mid 20th century.)
Ballade- Fantaisie de Printemps

Lubienski Ballade-Fantaisie.pdf

Late-romantic. Worth to explore.

Alfred, the Lubienski Ballade-Fantasie is just what the doctor ordered for this fine Spring day. Quite a nice romantic piece and very lush. Happily for me, all 10th are indicated as broken. Much enjoyment playing thie piece. Thank for posting this.

Dirk SCHÄFER
3 Klavierstukken
I. Veranderingen op een eigen dansthema
II. Théatre-Variété-Scène
III. 3de Wals

Schäfer 3 Klavierstukken op.10.pdf

Excellent piano style, but more 19th than 20th century.

P.S. You may have noticed, that the WEISZ suite is dedicated to Dirk Schäfer!
