Recently I've been listening to the 4 volumes already issued of the wonderful Péchés de vieillesse and other works issued by Chandos and would love to attempt some of them. I have only found the 4 volumes of selections republished by Kalmus, the Etude Asthmatique, and the 5 pieces edited by Soulima Stravinsky on the net and would be very interested in anything else anyone has.

Years ago, I did scan the complete Album de Chaumière (Vol VII), though seem to have some how lost the last 3 pieces from it! If others are interested, I'd be most happy to upload the rest.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Richard

I have the following pieces from Album de Chaumière: Une pensée à Florence, Valse boiteuse, Marche, Un profond sommeil, Un réveil en Sursaut. If any of those is amongst the 3 you are missing, let me know. In case you have any different from those in my list, please post them for me.

Cheers.

Hi. You mention having Un profond sommeil and Un réveil en Sursaut, but they remain the only 2 now missing from the Album de Chaumière.
Could you be kind enough to post them? Thanks!

Terrific, Alegitor! Many thanks.

Rossini piano pieces (Kalmus) Saluti a tutti!

Talking of Rossini - Theodor Dohler - born 1814 in Naples, died 1856 in Florence. Pupil of Julius Bendict at Naples, and of Czerny (piano) and Sechter (composition) at Vienna. In 1831 he became pianist to the Duke of Lucca; lived for a time in Naples as well as concertizing across Germany, Italy, France, Holland and England to great acclaim. In 1843 went to Copenhagen, thence to Russia.....in 1846 to Paris before settling in Florence in 1848. In 1846, the Duke, his patron, ennobled him and he married a Russian countess. Primarily known for his many piano works.

Grand Fantasia with Variations on themes from Rossini's Guillaume Tell Malcolm

A couple more scores by Theodor Dohler (1814-1856) .

Fantasie No. 1 on L'Eliser d'amour Op 21 Fantaisie, Variations on Lucia di Lammermoor Malcolm & Mr P

And another work by Dohler found amidst many scores...........his Op 38 Fantaisie on airs from Beatrice di Tenda. Malcolm

Top marks, this is good stuff.

Thal

A few people asked if there were any more works by Giuseppe Concone (1810-1860)....so always happy to obligh Malcolm & Mr P

I have been searching widely for the sheet music of Alfredo Casella's "Notturnino", written in 1909. I don't mean the one from the suite "Pupazetti". I mean the one played by Lya de Barberiis on YouTube. I have looked everywhere without luck. The piece is listed in the Wikipaedia article on Casella, so it should exist. I would be very grateful to anyone with information on where I could get a copy.
