The Life and Times of Louis Moreau Gottschalk * 8 May 1829 in New Orleans + 18 Dec 1869 in Tijuca (Brazil) Born in New Orleans in 1829, Louis Moreau Gottschalk grew up in a neighbourhood where he was exposed to the Creole music with its African-Caribbean rhythms and the melodious folk songs that would later become a characteristic ingredient of much of his own music. The house where he was born still stands at the southwest corner of Esplanade and Royal streets in New Orleans, and it was from this rather unassuming place that his brilliant career started a career that would eventually spur him on to international fame. The general musical climate of New Orleans may have played its role during Gottschalk´s childhood, but is seems unlikely that little Louis-Moreau, at age two, picked up his extensive knowledge of Creole music by dancing on the gallery to the sounds of Sunday afternoon dances, or, as his biographer S. Frederick Starr puts it, “by hanging on the fence of Congo square as a spectator” (Congo Square with its many musical gatherings being, at the time, the major dissemination point for West Indian and Afro-American culture in New Orleans). Rather, he was exposed to the music also within the household; via his Grandmother Buslé and his nurse Sally, both of whom were natives of Saint-Domingue. However, none of this is to suggest that Gottschalk´s later work was derivative: When he borrowed from traditional sources he did so openly and acknowledged his sources, and at any rate such occasional “quotations” are outweighed by his playful inventiveness and creativity. An example of this is his informal début at the (then) new St. Charles Hotel in 1840, at a time when despite his numerous recitals in salons of wealthy New Orleans households he had not yet performed in public concerts. The programme described Gottschalk as “a young Creole” and his début already foreshadowed his later work: Taking a Latin dance tune and performing a series of variations on the tune, thus combining the popularity of the tune and subjecting it to a very Gottschalkian treatment, he charmed the audience, and the début became an instant success.

Louis Moreau Gottschalk Life Photo Gallery Home Page Louis Moreau Gottschalk Life Gottschalk was born in New Orleans in 1829. From early in his childhood, he was exposed to the French and African-tinged Caribbean folk music that characterized the music of the Creoles. It was this bombastic music that left the deepest impression on Gottschalk, later permeating his works and eventually spurring him on to international fame. The musical climate of New Orleans in the 1830s is revealed in the childhood of Gottschalk. Creoles made up about 50 percent of the city at that time, with the majority of the population residing in what was called Old New Orleans, east of Canal. Gottschalk, too, was of Creole descent and was raised primarily by his grandmother and his African-American nurse, both natives of the island of Saint-Dominique. Certainly Creole melodies were a natural part of the Gottschalk household. Young Gottschalk would stand on the third floor gallery and listen to the sounds of the street floating on the sultry city breeze. Music filled the streets of New Orleans then, as it still does today, and flowed among the houses which remained open to the street most of the year.
