AMQS from the Viennese pianist and composer, a professor at the Wiener Musikakademie, pianist on various recordings and on concert tours with Casals, Feuermann, Cassado as well as with many other singers and cellists. He often performed his own transcriptions and paraphrases on Johann Strauss themes, making a few recordings into the LP era. The present 8-bar quotation, boldly written in pencil and identified as "Valse," appears to be one of these Strauss-inspired compositions. Signed and dated 1930, with a mounted inset sepia photograph on an album page measuring 4.1 x 6.1 inches (10.5 x 15.5 cm.). In fine condition.
