ABOUT CARL REINECKE

Influential and versatile musician remembered for his flute sonata "Undine." He composed nearly 300 published works.

He embarked on his first concert tour when he was 19, traveling throughout Denmark and Sweden and expanding his musical education along the way.

He became the earliest-born pianist to record his playing, laying down seven compositions on piano roll in 1904 at the age of 80.

His father Johann Peter Rudolph Reinecke was a music teacher and his first instructor.

He studied with three great composers: Felix Mendelssohn, Franz Liszt, and Robert Schumann .
