About
Otakar Hollmann (1894-1967) was a Czech pianist who was notable in the repertoire for left-handed pianists. Although little known now, he was considered second only to Paul Wittgenstein in the promotion of the repertoire. He commissioned works from a number of composers, most notably Janácek and Martinu.
He initially studied as a violinist, but, during World War I, a bullet went through his right palm, injuring the metacarpus. Hollmann premiered the 'Capriccio' in Prague on 2 March 1928. Other Czech composers who wrote works for him include Erwin Schulhoff, Bohuslav Foerster, Jaroslav Tomášek, Václav Kaprál, Stanko Rajcic, Jaroslav Rídký, Josef Bartovsky, Aleš Jermár, Vincenc Stastny and Jarmil Burghauser.
