Franz Kessel (1862-1931)

[Reverie]

The whole of his Phantastische Tondichtung "Kain" with score.

No photo I'm afraid and I've searched far and wide. Bonus brownie pts for anyone who can garner a photo!

An imaginative and explosive tone poem! A very nice find and (although I'm hearing some incorrect notes in the brass now and then) it's a terrific video. Apparently, his symphonic poem Corsairs was popular in his time.

Even Alkan left a couple of photos behind, so let's hope one of Kessel is out there somewhere...
