As part of the celebration of Bortkiewicz’s 70th birthday Doblinger published these Quatre Morceaux. The first one, Lied ohne Worte, is a reminiscence of Mendelssohn. The Etude in E minor (No.2) is written in the vein of Chopin’s studies, even quoting devices of several of them. The Epithalame (No.3) or wedding song, is again in the beloved key of C sharp major. Bortkiewicz composed Epithalame for the left hand only. The dedicatee of the work, pianist Rudolf Horn, premiered the work on June 15, 1934 on Berlin radio. In its original form it was called Russischer Hochzeitsang. The Capriccio alle Polacca (No.4) has folkloristic ostinato patterns that gradually builds up into muscular chord blocks; the middle part gives a songlike contrast.
