Great to know this Hans, thanks Chris >>> Hans Pizka <[email protected]> 2/21/2011 1:49 PM >>> One thing is not correct with Jasper Reeś research:
Leutgeb́s real name was Leitgeb, such in his papers, which I have in copy as well as a list of his solo appearances at the Vienna Burgtheater, the older theatre within the imperial residence, where Leitgeb played horn concertos as intermezzi music w.o. Haydns Concerto no.1 (but under the name of Michael Haydn, due to Count Nikolaus Esterhazýs strong regulations; Haydn & his wife were godparents of the Leitgeb́s first child). Leitgeb himself was born in Vienna as son of Leopold Leigeb, a violinist. All this is proof documented as well as Leitgeb́s last will. And he was not poor in his later years, owning two houses, where he lived & rented out the remaining flats & rooms, quite a reasonable income. I also have a photo of his last house he lived in. The house was demolished not earlier than after World War 2. ####################################################################################################### Am 21.02.2011 um 19:26 schrieb William Ostler: > I'm glad you contribute to the List now and then, Cabbage. I enjoy your humor. I just finished reading Jasper Rees, "A Devil to Play". I enjoyed his humor, real world experience with his horn and his research information.
