Pianophilia

Here's a two piano version of Isidor Philipp's Feux-follets by Paul Kay. The scans are from Haithitrust but I did rework them a bit. Any info on Paul Kay – e.g., bio, is this a real name or pseudonym, etc.?

These pieces are for piano and harmonium - and can of course be played on two pianos, with a different "demand" on the 2 players. It seems that in the (remote) past it wasn't too unusual to have also a harmonium at home, otherwise why would one have provided this kind of transcriptions.
