Louis Moreau Gottschalk S. Frederick Starr Innovative American composer, virtuoso pianist, and swashbuckling Romantic hero, Louis Moreau Gottschalk produced immensely popular works combining the French, Hispanic, and African influences of his native New Orleans. Many of his syncopated compositions anticipated ragtime by half a century. S. Frederick Starr's biography, originally published under the title Bamboula!, is the most extensive chronicle available of Gottschalk's eventful life. "At last! Thanks to S. Frederick Starr, we now have a well-researched biography of the fabulous Louis Moreau Gottschalk, America's first great pianist, first classical music matinee idol, and first nationalistic composer. Mr. Starr brings the man and his period vividly to life." New York Times "[Starr] offers the broadest picture yet of one of the most important nineteenth-century musicians, American or otherwise. Having scrupulously sifted through the extravagant and hazy Gottschalk mythology, Starr has written an engrossing, well-documented, and generously illustrated book." — Choice S. Frederick Starr

Epoch: Country: USA Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869) Detailed Information about Picture Gallery List of Works Bibliography I would like to thank Jillian M. Gent for this contribution to The Classical Music Pages Introduction (born New Orleans 8 May 1929; died Tijuca, Brazil, 18 December 1869) Gottschalk was born in New Orleans in 1829 in a house that still stands at the southwest corner of Esplanade and Royal streets. From early in his childhood, he was exposed to the French and African-tinged Caribbean folk music that characterized the music of the Creoles. It was this bombastic music that left the deepest impression on Gottschalk, later permeating his works and eventually spurring him on to international fame. The musical climate of New Orleans in the 1830s is revealed in the childhood of Gottschalk. Creoles made up about 50 percent of the city at that time, with the majority of the population residing in what was called Old New Orleans, east of Canal. Gottschalk, too, was of Creole descent and was raised primarily by his grandmother and his African-American nurse, both natives of the island of Saint-Dominique. Certainly Creole melodies were a natural part of the Gottschalk household. In Gottschalk’s 1958 biography, Vernon Loggins, paints a far more romantic picture of the inspiration behind the Creole melodies of Gottschalk’s music. Loggins gives a vivid description of the three story, vine-covered home on Rampart where the Gottschalks resided from 1831-1833. Loggins claims that young Gottschalk would stand on the third floor gallery and listen to the sounds of the street floating on the sultry city breeze. Music filled the streets of New Orleans then, as it still does today, and flowed among the houses which remained open to the street most of the year.

e mail When I read the name Louis Moreau Gottschalk for the first time I thought that he must have been a frenchman with german ancestors. I was surprised when I learned that Gottschalk was neither french nor german, but american. He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1829 and died just 40 years old while travelling in Brazil. He was a famous pianist and composer in his times. Today his name is not so well-known, but when one is really looking for recordings of Gottschalk's music he can find them [mostly released by minor labels]. His instrument was the piano, so naturally his compositions are mostly written for the piano. Gottschalk was travelling a lot and his music is a mixture of north and south american, caribbean and european influences. But it's not only rewarding to listen to Gottschalk's music - Gottschalk himself was a very interesting person.

The first Gershwin louis moreaugottschalk (1829-1869) - was born 69 years earlier in New Orleans. http://www.fredflaxman.com/Gottschalk.html

Louis Moreau Gottschalk: The First Gershwin George Gershwin, as great and as original as he was, was not the first American composer to combine Afro-American rhythms with classical forms. The "first Gershwin" - Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869) - was born 69 years earlier in New Orleans. Like Gershwin, Gottschalk wrote hundreds of catchy, short tunes for the piano and needed the help of others to orchestrate his very few longer-form pieces. Like Gershwin, who was influenced by the jazz of his era, Gottschalk was attracted to the pre-jazz Creole music of his native city and the Afro-Caribbean tunes of the islands he explored for five years. Both Gershwin and Gottschalk shared a Jewish heritage, as well. Gottschalk's father, a stockbroker, was born in England. His strikingly beautiful mother was related to the French aristocracy, or at least pretended to be. The young Gottschalk began to play the piano at the age of 3. He was only 12, 13 or 14 (depending on which source you believe) when his parents sent him more than 3000 miles away to Paris, then the center of the musical world, to study piano and composition - no small adventure for a teenager 153 years ago. There he was refused admission to the Paris Conservatory. The director claimed that America "could produce nothing but steam engines." He took private lessons, and rapidly became the artistic and social rage of the continent. He spent more than a decade in Europe, where, according to the program notes by Wilfrid Mellers which accompany the Nimbus CD of Gottschalk's Piano Music for Four Hands (NI 5324), he "hobnobbed with the socially high and mighty, but also earned the admiration of artists of the calibre of Chopin, Liszt and Berlioz."

Welcome to www.LouisMoreauGottschalk.com This website is dedicated to the American composer and pianist-virtuoso Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869). In recent years, there has been a steady growth of interest in Gottschalk´s music, and it is hoped that this website will help promote his music as well as provide information about his rather turbulent career. Traditionally, Gottschalk is remembered as a virtuoso, as well as a prolific composer of popular (and, so it is said, quite often rather sentimental) music. While there may be some truth in this statement, it is our belief that there is more to Gottschalk and his music than just that. As one of his biographers has put it, Gottschalk was “both an arch-romantic and a rationalist, a sentimentalist and a pragmatist, at once America´s first regionalist composer, its first multiculturalist, and its first true nationalist.” Gottschalk was also the first and, one might well argue, possibly the last pan-American composer and artist. Not only did he travel frequently outside the United States, as did, by necessity, most virtuoso pianists at the time; he also lived in South America and the Caribbean for extended periods of time, incorporating, without prejudice but with critical judgment, many local influences and musical traditions. He also was politically outspoken on issues such as slavery and the Civil War, and while a true American patriot, he did not spare his countrymen acrimonious criticism whenever he deemed it appropriate. This website will continue to grow so as to provide as complete and concise an account of Gottschalk´s life and his music as possible. We also intend to provide an up-to-date documentation of books on Gottschalk and a discography of recordings of his music (concentrating on CDs and recordings that are currently available rather than on historic sources). To the extent that the books and CDs featured on this website are available, we provide direct links to online sources (in association with

The Life and Times of Louis Moreau Gottschalk * 8 May 1829 in New Orleans + 18 Dec 1869 in Tijuca (Brazil) Born in New Orleans in 1829, Louis Moreau Gottschalk grew up in a neighbourhood where he was exposed to the Creole music with its African-Caribbean rhythms and the melodious folk songs that would later become a characteristic ingredient of much of his own music. The house where he was born still stands at the southwest corner of Esplanade and Royal streets in New Orleans, and it was from this rather unassuming place that his brilliant career started a career that would eventually spur him on to international fame. The general musical climate of New Orleans may have played its role during Gottschalk´s childhood, but is seems unlikely that little Louis-Moreau, at age two, picked up his extensive knowledge of Creole music by dancing on the gallery to the sounds of Sunday afternoon dances, or, as his biographer S. Frederick Starr puts it, “by hanging on the fence of Congo square as a spectator” (Congo Square with its many musical gatherings being, at the time, the major dissemination point for West Indian and Afro-American culture in New Orleans). Rather, he was exposed to the music also within the household; via his Grandmother Buslé and his nurse Sally, both of whom were natives of Saint-Domingue. However, none of this is to suggest that Gottschalk´s later work was derivative: When he borrowed from traditional sources he did so openly and acknowledged his sources, and at any rate such occasional “quotations” are outweighed by his playful inventiveness and creativity. An example of this is his informal début at the (then) new St. Charles Hotel in 1840, at a time when despite his numerous recitals in salons of wealthy New Orleans households he had not yet performed in public concerts. The programme described Gottschalk as “a young Creole” and his début already foreshadowed his later work: Taking a Latin dance tune and performing a series of variations on the tune, thus combining the popularity of the tune and subjecting it to a very Gottschalkian treatment, he charmed the audience, and the début became an instant success.
