Eric MEYER-HELMUND
Dein gedenk ich, Margaretha op. 12,2 (arr. Kirchner)

Here are links to my own scans of a couple of pieces written under his alias Charles Godard (source of much confusion with seekers of Benjamin G's works!):
Au Hameau, Idylle Op. 74

Ballet de Papillons Op. 65
http://www.mediafire.com/file/f41moy16x ... .%2065.pdf

I don't think these have ever appeared elsewhere!

Hi Folks,

I wanted to bring attention to three large volumes of music by Jules Egghard which were posted by RSL. Excellent salon music!

All Best,

Frank

Joseph Fredericks - a very accomplished composer if these pieces
are anything to judge by - whom time seems to have forgotten. (The only
reference I can find is from the April 1922 edition of the Oxford Journals.)

Thanks for that - I am a fan of his Tyrolian-tinged salon music,and those volumes will give me a lot of pleasure!

Bonsoir,

I would really like to hear this played (properly!) Does any one have an audio file? or maybe Philip could trot out a midi?

I am particularily confused halfway down page 2. (of music)

Regards,

and a bonus - regards,

There are 8 men in the UK called Charles Pullan, not including
those currently pushing up the daisies (and the heather).

Not too demanding ! Thank you !
