Emil Liebling was a German-born American pianist, teacher and composer.
Background
Emil Liebling, the second son of Jacob and Henriette (Mosler) Liebling, was born on April 12, 1951 in Pless, Germany. His brothers Max, Saul, and Georg also became well-known musicians. Their father was a church singer and he gave all of his children their first musical training.
Education
He studied in Germany. He first went to Berlin where he was a student of Kullak and Ehrlich in piano and of Dorn in composition. From Berlin he went to Vienna to study piano with Dachs, and finally he became a student of Liszt at Weimar.
Career
Emil emigrated to America in 1867 at the age of sixteen and taught first in and about Covington, Kentucky, and later in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was fond of relating his early experiences in Kentucky, where, after buying a saddle-horse, he rode horseback across the country, stopping at every house in which he heard a piano or learned of there being one. After introducing himself as a pianist, he would offer to play and he generally emerged with one or more pupils to add to his growing class.
In 1872 he settled in Chicago as a private teacher. During his stay in Europe, he taught first in the Kullak Conservatory at Berlin, later in Vienna and Weimar and acquired a large literary knowledge and became a proficient linguist. He also enjoyed the friendship of Sherwood, Von Sternberg, and Moszkowski, the first two of whom later became prominent in America.
He returned to America in 1876 and immediately won recognition as a pianist and composer. In 1877 he appeared as soloist with the Theodore Thomas Orchestra. Many of his compositions were fashioned on the popular order of his period, but he was greater as a pianist than as a composer. With W. S. B. Mathews he compiled the Pronouncing and Defining Dictionary of Music (1896) and he edited the last volume, "Essentials of Music" (1910), of The American History and Encyclopedia of Music (12 vols. , 1908 - 1910). He also contributed many articles to musical magazines.
Achievements
Liebling was considered an especially fine Bach player, but he was equally brilliant as an interpreter of Liszt, Chopin, Beethoven, and Schumann. He made many successful appearances with the violinist August Wilhelmj, both as soloist and accompanist. Among the best of his compositions were the following: "Gavotte Moderne, " opus 11, "Florence Valse, " opus 12, "Feu Follet, " opus 17, "Albumblatt, " opus 18, "Cradle Song, " opus 23, and "Menuetto Scherzoso, " opus 28.
