According to this article (http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/showcase/chi-0208110430aug11,0,537855.story?coll=chi-site-nav), the Hindemith Concerto for the Left Hand was never played in public, and has recently been rediscovered among his wife Hilde (ne้ Schania) Wittgenstein's estate. -- Someone else 22:57 Mar 30, 2003 (UTC)
- Thanks for that, it's a good article (and it explains why I couldn't find any details about the Hindemith piece in any reference books). I might try to work some of it into this article one day. I'm more convinced than ever, reading that, that Wittgenstein's life is just crying out to be made into a slushy Hollywood movie. --Camembert

The article sayeth:
- Charles Winchester (David Ogden Stiers) provides him with the sheet music for Ravel's Pieces for the Left Hand, tells him Wittgenstein's story, and encourages him not to abandon his musical gift.
Ravel never wrote anything called Pieces for the Left Hand. He did write a Concerto for the Left Hand, as mentioned in the article - is this something that MASH just gets wrong, or is it the article at fault? If the latter, lets fix it; if the former, we probably ought to note that such a set of pieces doesn't actually exist. --Camembert
Erp, you're right. I'll have to see it again, but I believe that Charles does in fact call it Pieces for the Left Hand. The MASH newsgroup correctly identifies it and of course you can pick Ravel out a mile away, the whole style. I can fix it. Thank you. --Bluejay Young 18:32, 5 May 2004 (UTC)
