Bohm

Carl Bohm (1844–1920) was a German composer and pianist based in Berlin whose prolific output of salon and teaching pieces made him one of the most frequently played composers of his day in drawing rooms and music schools across Europe. His best-known piece, Still wie die Nacht (Calm as the Night), became a fixture of the Victorian and Edwardian parlour repertoire and remains in use in teaching programmes today. Bohm wrote extensively for violin and piano, producing well-crafted miniatures that sit comfortably within the reach of intermediate players and suit examination and recital programmes well.
