I am looking for the musical score for the piano piece " María la O ", RO 159, by Gottschalk - someone has a downloadable link, or knows where I can consult the score on paper, or ask for a scan ?

Je cherche la partition pour " María la O ", RO 159, de Gottschalk, quelqu'un aurait un lien ? ou une information bibliographique ?

Thank you very much,
Merci beaucoup,

Best regards

Great resource. One minor point on the list: the item described as God Save the Queen or America is surely neither. It was written in Switzerland at a time when this tune was the Swiss national anthem. Given his approach to anthems generally was this not a tribute to his Swiss hosts?

2nd link to contemporary use of Gottschalk's music.

Great info here, I had the Curt Lange books about Gottschalk in Rio de Janeiro and was always fascinated

La biographie de Gottschalk du côte de sa branche maternelle est fantaisiste.
Son arrière grand-père est bien Antoine II Bruslé de Beaubert. Ce dernier est le fils de Antoine I Bruslé de Beaubert, premier juge de Louisiane en 1723. Antoine II est allé de la Nouvelle-Orléans à Saint-Domingue (et non pas de Rochefort). De ses nombreux enfants il ne restera que Camille, grand-père de Gottschalk, Hortense et Catherine.
Gottschalk est envoyé à 12 ans chez sa grand-tante Hortense qui a épousé un Fauque de Jonquière.

Fervent admirateur de LMG, ce site comble un manque évident.
je mets de temps à autre une transcription des partitions de LMG sur musescore.
Exemple: Ojos Criollos

Hi, I am new here. Thanks for sharing the information.

Gottschalk seems more and more important the more I know about the brilliance of his music and his fascinating life. I grew up in New Orleans where, like the remnants of the Big Bang in the universe, if you listen very carefully, you can still hear the drums playing in Plaçe Congo.
