Description: You are bidding for a stunning and very interesting antique music book. It is titled 'A catalogue of the works of Kalkbrenner'. We cannot find a date but we suggest that this is dated between 1832 and 1850 It is published by Clementi, Collard & Collard 26 Cheapside, London Friedrich Wilhelm Kalkbrenner (7 November 1785–10 June 1849) was a German pianist and composer. Son of Christian Kalkbrenner (1755-1806), a musician of Cassel, Friedrich was educated at the Paris Conservatoire, and soon began to play in public. From 1814 to 1823 he was well known as a brilliant performer and a successful teacher in London, and then settled in Paris, dying at Enghien, near there, in 1849. As a teacher Kalkbrenner developed a piano playing technique that kept the musician's strength in the fingers and hands, instead of the forearm. This technique was used by his student Camille-Marie Stamaty, who taught it to his student, Camille Saint-Saëns. He became a member of the Paris piano-manufacturing firm of Pleyel & Co., and made a fortune by his business and his art combined. His numerous compositions are little remembered today. This is a stunning and interesting antique music book that would be of interesting for any one who like to play the piano music by instruction as it was in this period. It would certainly compliment any collection or display.
