Valses de l’université de Heidelberg für Klavier zu zwei Händen

Anastasia Eckert, Felicitas Julia Hübner, Fabienne Kathrin Knittel, Rüdiger Thomsen-Fürst (Eds.)

The Valses de l'université de Heidelberg for piano two hands are the work of the piano dealer F. C. Kohlenberger (1814‒1895), who worked in Geneva. In addition to his main profession, Kohlenberger composed and self-published his works. Besides the musical text, the volume also contains extensive commentaries devoted to the composer's biography, the history of the waltz in the 19th century, and the dance in the academic context of the University of Heidelberg.
