List of compositions by Alexandre Goria

This is the list of compositions by Alexandre Goria who wrote about 130 drawing-room pieces among polkas, berceuses, nocturnes, waltzes, rêvéries, and his Serenade for the left hand, which became widely known during his active years.

He also wrote barcarolles, fantasies and mazurkas, and a good number of characteristic and genre pieces one quotes from memory are the beautiful Allegrezza, l'Attente, Le Calme, lighter works indeed but which have a real cachet of originality.

His transcriptions of selected motifs from several operas such as Souvenires du Théâtre Italien, Belisario, Il Trovatore, Le Pardon de Ploërmel, Montenegrins, Una Furtiva Lagrima, all cleverly written, prove the great popularity of his name which had real commercial value.

A favorite artist of lovers of brilliant music, concert and salon fantasies, his piano pieces were structured for the needs of the sale, almost improvised, but correctly written while praising the skill of the happy choice of patterns implemented and their variety.
