Le Courante Limpide Le Courante Limpide is one of his piano pieces. Le Courante Limpide is also very difficult for people to play.

There he appeared as a pianist for his first concert, January 14, 1830. Friedrich moved to Paris in 1832 (at age 26),where he stayed until his death. There, he adopted Parisian music and developed his trademark (light) style of playing. He wrote many pieces of salon music for the piano and published several albums. Burgmüller also went on to compose piano études intended for children.
