Pianophilia

Another short Duvernoy piece.

Thank you very much GJF for these pieces by a composer not frequently found in piano music. Much appreciated.

Duvernoy Alphonse op.12 Serenade.pdf

Thank you very much for the Duvernoy pieces - I had previously only seen his two-piano 'Feu Roulant'. Incidentally, one could make an interesting recital programme of music dedicated. like this serenade, to Antoine Marmontel.

Hot off scanner. Enjoy!

Thank you for that.

I found a few by Joseph Leybach not available on IMSLP. The first is Fantaisie Brillante on Luisa Miller. Can't say that I know the opera that well, having only heard it once from the Met that I can recall, so I can't say that the melodies are oddly chosen as they were for Lakme. However, of the 2 other Fantaisies (Carmen, Traviata) I can say that Carmen has a section I don't recall ever hearing. I'll try to get as much scanned as I can in the next day or so, then I'm on vacation for 2 weeks.

In addition to the Fantaisies, the Leybach book from which I scanned Luisa Miller has some other pieces not on IMSLP.

Thank you for that. Leybach is usually called Ignace Leybach. Although Joseph is one of his Christian names, his usual first name is Ignace, whose initial letter I is often written J, according to a long tradition. Similarly, lots of scores by Ignace Pleyel read J. Pleyel.

Request:

Would anyone happen to have the scores of Radulescu's Piano sonatas and concerto? I can't find them anywhere...

I'm playing a couple of the sonatas late this year and early next. Good luck.

Nos. 5 & 6 are very hard to play from the current scores.
No.2 is fine. I have not seen nos.3 & 4.

The Fugue is available from http://www.crescendomusicpublications.com.au/ in a revised and corrected edition, as part of their complete Widor piano music series.
