Browse piano sheets by Albert John Weidt on Zen Virtual Piano. Albert John Weidt developed a “chord system” and wrote an extensive course for banjo based on it. He wrote monthly articles in Jacobs’ Band Monthly, and he was a violinist, mandolinist and conductor who studied violin in Buffalo and taught stringed instruments in Newark, New Jersey. A teaching system turned into an extensive course suggests a method meant to be learned step by step. He was born in Buffalo, New York, on 15 February 1866, the son of the tailor Johann Weidt and Ernestina, and died in Middletown, New Jersey, on 9 December 1945. From 1885 to 1893 he worked as a music teacher and musical instrument dealer in Buffalo, and in 1889 he married Ida M. From 1895 until the death of his wife he lived in Newark; he is recorded as active in Boston in 1917 and in Montclair in 1929. Teaching and selling instruments in Buffalo, and teaching stringed instruments in Newark, point to teaching as a thread running through his working life. His compositions include “The Black Prince,” “Pink Lemonade” and “Ken-Tuc-Kee,” a fox trot. A fox trot among his compositions, beside a career in teaching, shows a musician whose output was not only instructional but also included dance music.
