Selected Piano Works of Louis Moreau Gottschalk by concert pianist Lambert Orkis.
Gottschalk was a native Jewish New Orleanian and one of the world’s most popular musical composers and performers. After his untimely death at the age of 40 in 1869, his work faded into obscurity. Recently, it has been rediscovered by scholars and classical music fans alike. John Palmer, the founder of Skytel and former U.S. ambassador to Portugal, has teamed with Lambert Orkis to reissue this CD to help draw attention to the work of one of the South’s most talented composers. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to ISJL.
