Ludvig Schytte: Valse Capriccietto & Valse Noble,

0:00 Valse Capriccietto 2:30 Valse Noble The first piece is already quite nice, but the second is a hidden gem, in my opinion. I really like it. Schytte (1848-1909) was a Danish composer, pianist, and teacher. Born in Aarhus, Denmark, Schytte studied with Niels Gade and Edmund Neupert. In 1884, he travelled to Germany to study with Franz Liszt. Schytte lived and taught in Vienna between 1886 and 1907 and spent the last two years of his life teaching in Berlin. His shorter works are still used today as educational studies for piano students. Originally trained as a pharmacist, Schytte composed a Piano Concerto in C-sharp minor, Op. 28, and a Sonata in B-flat, among numerous other piano works. He also wrote two operas: Hero (25 September 1898 in Copenhagen) and Der Mameluk (22 December 1903 in Vienna). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - A method to find scores:
