1875 seems an unlikely birthdate unless he was a considerable prodigy, whatever Riethmuller's Busoni in Berlin says? :)... Behr was already published by 1888 (see Monatsbericht (1888), p.422 for example) and up to Op.8 by 1890 (Monatsbericht (1890), p.322 - 10 (Opp.9&10 were also published in 1890, see p.341) published works with assigned opus numbers by age 15, assuming these are all the same person and age 15 is accurate. Where is "1875" from anyway (there are many "Hermann Behr"s about in the records?)... It reads more like a flourishing date that got misread as a birthdate along the way by someone?... - E.S. (note: Op.8, Der Frühling : zehn characteristische Variationen, can be downloaded here, so one can at least create the category and get started.
