Many people don't like Fritz Kreisler because most of his works are "ripped-off" of baroque composers. He found a handbook full of unpublished songs and adjusted them for violin + piano accompaniment and became famous. Do you like him? Do you like his compositions? Here's one of my fav songs "by" him. :doh: It was actually composed by Gaetano (sp?) Pugnini during the Baroque era, most likely for harpsichord or organ solo. I can't find anything else by Pugnini, unfortunately. :( Anyway, I love this song. If you want, I can post a few of Kreisler's other songs, including a few of his original compositions. He wasn't much of a composer - mainly just an "arranger"/composer. :P

PS: If you take Gand's bandwidth to listen to it, at least reply. :P :)

wow i never knew Fritz Kreisler didn't compose his own music 0_0...
For me I like Fritz Kreisler...from before i always thought they were all composed by him...

:(

That's not good at all...personally i think he should credit the original artist!!

OK enough of my rant...

wow this song is really nice :drool: (goes off to practice violin)

THANX FOR POSTING IT UP!! XD

Well, he did compose a few original tunes, but many of the songs he composed weren't original: in the published versions, they were simply said to be "In the style of..." the original composer of it. :P Many people disliked him for this. A few of his original compositions were Liebesleid and Liebesfreud, as well as La Gitana and Caprice Viennois (sp?).
