Louis Moreau Gottschalk

Louis Moreau Gottschalk became a concert pianist and an eccentric purveyor of virtuosic fantasies on any popular tune that took his fancy, bringing much fame and, no doubt, fortune. Born 8 May 1829 in New Orleans, he studied with Berlioz and impressed Chopin with his playing. He died in Tijuca, Brazil on 18 December 1869.
