Episode description

I've never heard of the composer Wolf Ebann (1832-1888)... but take a few minutes to listen. ------------- Wolf Ebann was a Lithuanian-Jewish composer born in 1832, in Kedainiai (in Lithuania, then part of the Russian Empire). He was first taught music (piano) by his father and uncle. From the age of 11 he studied violin in Lithuania and abroad. Later he became director of the orchestra in Kaunas. Between 1874 and 1884 he worked at the Vilnius Teacher Training Institute and he was appointed as the director of the Vilnius Department of the Russian Music Society and conductor of the Vilnius City Theater Orchestra. He died in Yalta on 10 November 1888. ------------- I found the score by chance: https://musescore.com/user/18902116/scores/6073083
