Gerald Schwertberger
(b. 1941 )

The Austrian composer and teacher Schwertberger originally wrote the four part "Happy Hour Sandwich" for a Japanese pianist and later re-arranged it for an Italian guitar piano duo. Several of the themes were previously used in his didactic books for piano, violin, and cello.

Anne Ku and Robert Bekkers performed this at their London debut concerts on 30 May 2003.
