Composer Study - Euphemia Allen

Euphemia Allen

"This part (primo part of the duet) must be played with both hands turned sideways, the little fingers lowest, so that the movements of the hands imitate the chopping from which this waltz gets its name."

Euphemia Allen (1861 - 1948) was a Scottish composer in the Romantic/Modern time period. She wrote the famous Chopstick Waltz and published it under a pseudonym, Arthur de Lulli.
