Julius Schulhoff - Piano Sonata

Adrián Ruiz - Piano // (Check out his channel for more obscure pieces 👉 ) 00:00 Allegro 07:03 Andante 12:18 Allegro Agitato Julius Schulhoff (1825-1898) was a Bohemian Composer and Pianist. Schulhoff was born in Prague, where he began studying piano with Kisch and Ignaz Amadeus Tedesco and also trained in music theory with Václav Tomášek. He made his debut at Dresden in 1842 and soon afterwards appeared at the Leipzig Gewandhaus. Moving to Paris shortly afterwards, he met Frédéric Chopin, who encouraged him in his bid to become an established professional pianist. The concerts that Schulhoff gave at Chopin’s suggestion were greeted with such acclaim that he embarked on a long tour through France and to London, continuing his travels through Spain (1851) and Russia (1853). As a composer, he was best known for his virtuosic salon pieces for solo piano, which included a grand sonata in F minor, twelve études, and various caprices, impromptus, waltzes, and Mazurkas. He was the great-uncle of the 20th-century composer Erwin Schulhoff. Please support the Channel for the work used amid this forsaken pandemic.
