Wilhelm Kuhe (10 December 1823 - 8 October 1912) was a German pianist and piano teacher, composer and administrator born in the city of Prague (modern-day Czech Republic), in the first half of the nineteenth-century.
==Life==
He exhibited a precocious taste for music, and at the age of four picked out Paganini's melodies on the pianoforte from memory.〔Wilhelm Kuhe, (''My Musical Recollections'' ), pg. 14, Rinsland Press (2008), ISBN 1-4437-4343-7〕 He was taught music by Václav Tomášek, having Julius Schulhoff as a fellow student. He lived in Upper Austria in 1843-44, studying music and preparing for a concert tour with great success in 1844 at Linz, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Augsburg, Munich, and then at Stuttgart.〔 During his stay in Stuttgart in 1845 he made the acquaintance of a singer possessed of one of the most beautiful baritone voices he had ever had the pleasure to hear called Pischek.〔 They both visited London on the morning of May 1 that year and the following year he played with great success at Mr. Ella's Musical Union in Mayseder's trio. His first concert in London was arranged by Moscheles at the Beethoven Rooms on Harley street. In 1847, at the age of 24, he settled in England, dividing his time between London and Brighton, where he attained popularity as a pianoforte teacher, performer and promoter of concerts.
With remarkable enterprise and spirit, Kuhe showed great enterprise by establishing the annual festival at Brighton which was held by him as a joint conductor from 1870 to 1882, wherein he encouraged native talent by the new works composed at his instance and produced by him, among which, Virginia Gabriel's ''Evangeline'' in 1873; Barnett's cantata, ''The Good Shepherd'', in 1876; Clay's ''Lalla Rookh'' in 1877 and 1878; Cowen's ''Deluge'', and Cellier's ''Suite Symphonique'' in 1878; Walter Macfarren's overture, ''Hero and Leander'', Gadsby's ''Lord of the Isles'', Wingham's Concert Overture in A, and Sloper's suite in 1879; Leslie's cantata, ''First Christmas Morn'', A. H. Jackson's ''Ballet Suite'' and W. Macfarren's Symphony in B♭ in 1880: W. Macfarren's Concertsttick in B♭, played by Miss Kuhe, in 1881; Corder's orchestral ''Nocturne'' in 1882, in addition to ''The Woman of Samaria'' and ''The Martyr of Antioch'', under the respective direction of their composers. He occasionally appeared in London, where he gave an annual concert in 1846. He was appointed a Professor of the Royal Academy of Music in 1886, position which he held until 1904. His numerous compositions include many drawing-room pieces, fantasias, and studies. He published also many transcriptions and songs.〔Mendel, ''Slovnik Naučny'', iv. 1044, Wurzbach, Prague (1859)〕
