Alfor's Rarities

[Ferruccio]

Hugo KAUN
Mümmelmann - Waldgeschichten Hermann Löns*** nacherzählt - Fünf Stücke für das Pianoforte op. 111
1. Auerhan-Balz (display of the capercaillie cock or Mountain cock or wood grouse) Octave-Study
2. Mümmelmann (rabbit) fugue
3. Einsam im Walde (forest solitude)
4. Fuchsjagd (fox hunting)
5. Nebelgestalten (guises in the fog)

Kaun Mümmelmann op.111.pdf

3 Stücke op. 56 (very good! in No. 2 & 3 K. obviously wanted to proove that through a refined use of the old 19th century devices of salon-music you still can compose really good music)

Kaun 3 Stücke op.56.pdf

***Löns was a German local "countryside" poet, immensely popular by settings (in folksong style) by school teacher and musician Fritz Jöde
("Rosemarie, Rosemarie, sieben Jahre mein Herz nach Dir schrie...remember, Ferruccio??!)

Eugene GOOSSENS
Kaleidoscope op. 18 (amazing enough, Eugen d'Albert recorded 2 of these)

Goossens Kaleidoscope op.18.pdf

Dear Alfor,

thanks for these great scores. I like the style of Goossens. And the pieces are not too difficult, hence useful !!

Tell me, what should I remember ?
Sorry for my stupidity, but I'm not as old as my idol FB ...
You mean, I should remember Löns ? Or Jöde ?

Awesome, Alfor! Even more Kaun...May I ask about the files you have already uploaded like Sonatine Op38No2 or Humoreske Op56No1, if those were only the remaining files or it is possible to find the complete opus 38 and 56? It would be great... Thank you.

Wonderful Kaun pieces and another surprising Goosens, Alfor. The Kaun Humoresque is really aptly named, and much fun with that today.

Tell me, what should I remember ?

Sorry, I forgot that you are still a youngster, indeed too young to know the Löns-Lieder (der Rosengarten, first published 1917). (Einst) so bekannt wie die Romane von Courths-Mahler und auch in "höheren Kreisen" gerne gesungen:

Sorry... I was looking for examples of single pieces from opuses, and I did not realise op 56 was the posted today!!! Better for us then, just the op 38 missing now...I believe he has also an opus 79 containing Humoreskes, besides the one present in op 56...

Awesome, Alfor! I've been waiting for Kaun all day I believe we may be taking the first step to the awakening of the music of Hugo Kaun for the World
