Born in Germany, Carl Bohm was one of the key German composers. His chamber music and songs were always in demand and indirectly helped Brahms to gain recognition – works of the latter were published in virtue of Bohm’s earnings. Carl Bohm was well-known while alive, and, ironic as it is, while his namesake (Karl Böhm) is regarded as one of the most acknowledged conductors of the previous century, he is unfairly forgotten nowadays.
Bohm's Alpine Flower. Edelweiss is leisurely and mellow solo piano piece, salon music at its finest. It is available for download here: Alpine Flower. Edelweiss, Op.279 No.1.
