Eugene Ketterer: Caprice de concert Bohêma

Eugène Ketterer (18311870) was a prolific French composer and pianist who was known for his numerous salon arrangements of contemporary opera arias. Ketterer became a student at the Paris Conservatoire in his early youth, where he studied with Antoine François Marmontel. After his graduation until his death in Paris in 1870, he appeared constantly as a pianist winning wide repute for his fantasies and drawingroom pieces, of which he wrote a large number, but only a few of which are still in the repertoire. The list of Ketterer s works gives an excellent overview on the world of opera in France at the time, as many of these works are transcriptions of popular opera arias, many still famous today.
