Moriz Rosenthal (17 December 1862 – 3 September 1946) was a great Polish pianist and composer.   

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Moriz the Merrier


Some would say that Rosenthal

Was the greatest of them all;

And no one ever said that he

Was lacking in his pedigree.


First, it should be noted duly

That his teacher was Mikuli;

And then, the fact should not be missed,

He was a student of Franz Liszt.


Envoi

The pleasure that his work afforded

Can still be had, (he was recorded),

Cue up his tracks, and be rewarded.
