 Winifred Wagner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eight years later she was adopted by a distant German relative of her mother's, Karl Klindworth, a musician and a friend of Richard Wagner.
The Bayreuth Festival was envisioned as a family business, with the leadership to be passed from Richard Wagner to his son Siegfried Wagner, but Siegfried, who was secretly homosexual, showed little interest in marriage.
It was arranged that Winifred Klindworth, as she now was called, aged 17, would meet Siegfried Wagner, aged 45, at the Bayreuth Festival in 1914.

 [No title]
Karl Ritter soon came back to Zurich, and told me of deficiencies in staging and of the unfortunate choice of a singer for the leading part, but remarked that on the whole it had gone fairly well.
Karl did not entertain the slightest doubt of being able to master such a simple score, but when he had to overcome his reserve in playing the piano before me, as I wanted to go through the whole opera with him, I was amazed at seeing that he had no idea of accompaniment.
Karl Ritter, unfortunately for himself, wrote to me from Stuttgart while I was at the hydro, describing his own private attempts to secure the benefits of a water cure--not by means of baths, but by drinking quantities of water.

 Music Of The Great Composers --
Klindworth was born at Hanover, September 25, 1830, and was in early youth a skillful violinist.
For a time he conducted a traveling opera troupe, but settled in Hanover as a teacher and composer.
He has also very finely re-orchestrated Chopin's piano concerto, though many people still prefer the composer's own arrangement of it.

 Sleeve Notes - Catoire: Piano Music
When he was fourteen, Catoire took his first piano lessons from Karl Klindworth, a pupil of Liszt and disciple of Wagner who, amongst other achievements, made the vocal scores of the Ring cycle, and who was also to teach at the Moscow Conservatoire from 1869 to 1881.
It was Klindworth who first directed Catoire towards the music of Wagner, as a result of which Catoire joined the Wagner Society in 1879.
At this time Klindworth was one of the principal conductors of the Berlin Philharmonic.

 6. The Studies:--Titanic Experiments Page 1
The early French, German and Polish editions are faulty, indeed useless, because of misprints and errata of all kinds.
Every succeeding edition has cleared away some of these errors, but only in Karl Klindworth has Chopin found a worthy, though not faultless, editor.
Klindworth is the most genially intellectual, Von Bulow the most pedagogic, and Kullak is poetic, while Riemann is scholarly; the latter gives more attention to phrasing than to fingering.

 Zeynep Ucbasaran - Franz LISZT Sonata in B minor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
He had heard his piano sonata for the first time played by his student Karl Klindworth; but it was Hans von Bülow who first officially performed the Sonata in Berlin on January 22, 1857.
Von Bülow had arrived in Weimar to study with Liszt in June 1851 and, according to Liszt scholar William Newman, had made a deep and lasting impression on the composer.
In particular, there is no detailed information on his own interpretation of this sonata, for which, unlike most of his compositions, he had no programme, or explanation for his source of inspiration.

 I553702
The orchestral part was added by Karl Klindworth, a prominent conductor in Berlin, and Wagner's most admired arranger of his orchestral scores for solo piano.
It should be pointed out that while Alkan saw and obviously approved Klindworth's work, his changes were so dramatic that he greatly changed the original piano composition.
Though the disc is described as the 'Complete Works for Piano and Orchestra', there is more of the work of others than by the composer himself.

 Schott Music - Shop - Shop - Sonata
Tchaikovsky wrote his second piano sonata in 1878 and dedicated this ”Grande Sonate” to the notable pianist Karl Klindworth, his colleague at the Moscow Conservatoire, who prepared the manuscript for publication.
”Your wonderful sonata really does not need any corrections by me”, Klindworth wrote to the composer, though he did in fact make some changes to the notation, dynamics, variations in tempo, articulation and phrasing.
Whereas all previous music editions have been based on the earliest published editions of Tchaikovsky’s work, this new edition is the first to present the original version based on Tchaikovsky’s autograph engraver’s score, which is kept in the Glinka Museum in Moscow.

I doubt if even Karl Tausig, impeccable artist, unapproachable Chopin player, would have pleased the composer.
Of Karl Tausig, Weitzmann said that "he relieved the romantically sentimental Chopin of his Weltschmerz and showed him in his pristine creative vigor and wealth of imagination." In Chopin's music there are many pianists, many styles and all are correct if they are poetically musical, logical and individually sincere.

 Frédéric Chopin and his publishers
Antoine François Marmontel (1816-1898), who was for many years professor of piano at the Paris Conservatory and wrote a number of books on contemporary pianists and piano technique, produced a fairly restrained edition in 1867.
In contrast, Karl Klindworth (1830-1916), one of Franz Liszt's most brilliant pupils, made free use of phrasing, articulation, dynamic, and pedaling to communicate his personal conception of the music.
The three men in this picture, Hans von Bülow, Carl Tausig, and Karl Klindworth, were Liszt's favorite piano students.

As for piano recitals, they rained on you; even in those days everybody played the piano well, as Felix Leifels has truthfully observed.
It was there I heard Karl Klindworth play Chopin, but I preferred his masterly edition of the master's music to his personal performance.
A giant then was Edmund Neupert, the Norwegian, to whom Edvard Grieg dedicated his A minor concerto, because it is said Neupert composed for it that massive cadenza in the first movement.
