Rudolf Friml 26 Favorite Compositions for Piano Solo.pdf

Friml Album Color Cover.jpg

Edit:-PS Anyone know if his piano concertos are out and about? I suspect they would be quite nice. They seemed to be popular and well recieved in his time. Any information and or uploads related to these would be much appreciated!

Dear Scriabinoff,

Thank you for posting the Friml album, this is a post I truly appreciate.

I have a fair amount of Friml and have often wondered why he is not better known, maybe the pronounciation of his name was too intimidating. Anyway - let me search my stacks, I may be able to add to your post, though from memory, many of those I have are "vocal". He collaborated in many popular songs.

regards,

tobyjj

Thank you for this album of Friml tobyjj.
I had put all I had of his on PP some time back, but it is good to have some
pieces that I did not have.

Peter.

Hello LiveforPiano,

NO, NO, NO ! - I agree praise and thanks are due .........

but NOT to me - it is Scriabinoff I was thanking for the Friml post - like you I have many, but there were some in that album that I did not have (or at least, not that version).

Now, having said that, it may be interesting to see what we (and interested others) can combine or contribute to fill his total output.

best regards,
tobyjj

My apologies to you ScriabinoffBest wishes.

Peter.

I am desperately searching for this score but it looks like it's really hard to obtain it. If anyone has any leads or has the sheet music himself please kindly tell me. I know Alfor posted his sonata already, but I am also very fond of this particular piece...So here goes the title:

Ján Levoslav Bella - Piece for piano in C minor ( First movement of an unfinished piano sonata )
