These world premiere recordings of 'handsome Edi's' music include the beguiling waltz Freie Gedanken or \"Free Thoughts\" written for the 'Hesperus' Artists' Association, and the charming polka-mazurka Schmeichelkatzchen ('Little Flatterer'), which was popular enough with Viennese audiences to be reprised throughout that season. Volume 1 of this edition was considered 'energetic and beautiful' by the American Record Guide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
