Phillip Sear plays a refined waltz from 1890 by the English composer 'Anton Strelezki' / Anton Strelezki (and Stepan Esipoff) are pseudonyms of Arthur Bransby Burnand, born in Edmonton, London in 1858 (one of ten children of a well-off Lloyds underwriter - a sister was alive until 1965), and died in Lambeth in 1907. However, there seems to be some confusion over this, as, per Alan Walker's biography of Liszt, Strelezki was apparently his pupil in 1869 (when he would have been only 11), and Walker gives his real name as Theophilus Burnand. Indeed, a book of 'Personal Reminiscences of Chats with Liszt' was published under the Strelezki name. Arthur did have an uncle called John Theophilus Burnand, but he was a City clerk. Clara Schumann also had a friend called Theophilus Burnand with whom she dined in the 1880s, and I have read that 'Strelezki' studied with her at the Leipzig Conservatory. Interestingly, Burnand (if it was he) gave recitals in Philadelphia (1887), Milwaukee (1888); and in Croydon and Hastings (a Chopin-only programme) all under the Strelezki name in 1890 and 1891. In a report of his Hastings concert, he is described as court pianist to the Queen of Roumania - which would have been Queen Elizabeth, aka the writer Carmen Sylva. This position was also held by Moritz Rosenthal at one time! There is a fascinating description of the man in 1889 here: (http•••) - but is this really a description of a 30 year old? Finally, he seems to have appeared more than once at the Old Bailey in London ( (http•••) and (http•••) ) which may account for the lack of live concert reports after the early 1890s. This piece was dedicated to the American composer and music critic Frederick Maxson +••.••(...)). / Played by Phillip Sear (http•••) (Email: •••@••• WhatsApp: (http•••) )
