Stavenhagen was one of Liszt’s last pupils (1885–86) and gave the oration at Liszt’s funeral. From 1886 to 1900 he toured most European countries and America. He was court conductor at Weimar from 1895 to 1898 and at the Munich Opera from 1898 to 1907. From 1907 until his death he taught piano at the Geneva Conservatory and conducted the municipal orchestra of that city. He was known for his interpretation of the works of Frédéric Chopin, and his cadenzas for Ludwig van Beethoven’s second and third piano concertos are still played occasionally today.
