Carl Heins

p, key, 1859-1923 DE
Musician / Composer

Carl Heins (1859 - 10 September 1923) was a German pianist, and a composer of light salon music in classical music style. He wrote both solo piano works and parlor songs.Hein's pieces show a special pianoesque ability to fashion pretty melodies picturesqely in the salon style of the time. His competentcy on the keyboard led him to perform and compose. He composed the song 'Zwei Dunkle Augen', which was recorded by the tenor Fritz Wunderlich. Heins possibly had roots in Bavaria — one of his other better-known pieces is 'Die Schwarzwälder Uhr' (the Black Forest clock). Stylistically his music is similar to that of his older compatriot Carl Böhm and much of it sounds like the sort of music one might hear played on a zither in an Alpine inn.
