Emil von Sauer was a German composer. He was a pupil of Franz Liszt and one of the most distinguished pianists of his generation.

Another recording of a rare gem! You know a piece of music resonates with you when you catch yourself spontaneously humming the main theme of it multiple times throughout the day. I had no choice but to learn and record this lovely 'Evening song'. What a simple melody but such a beauty!

I found it difficult to voice the melody when the accompaniment consists of various uncomfortable intervals and jumps. Furthermore, with such a steady 6/8 rhythm in the accompaniment it's easy to accidentally slip into a rigid metronomic pulse, and thus ruining the gorgeous melody on top. Copious amounts of rubato is extremely helpful in giving life to such a rigid structure.

Special thanks to Kenji N for introducing me to this piece! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsYzQJR0MWc

Another great gem.
