E. Pique motherlode

Gurdonark dug up a motherlode of work by E. Pique, the arranger of Slightly on the Mash. He got it from an interesting source — a branch of Creative Commons for scientific work, called Science Commons.

    Mr. Pique cast a wide shadow. Here he is in an article about the coming of the guitar to Victoria, BC:

    He seems to be a Robert Scoble kind of character, everywhere and nowhere.

    http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=U1SEC894504 :

    Victoria, BC, had one of the most active guitar circles in the late 19th century. … Abraham Hoffman and Charles Hegele had a guitar duo playing popular music transcribed and/or composed by C.G. St. Clair and E. Pique.

    It might be relevant that BC is out west, near Pique in SF.

    I write weblogs and poetry rather than biography, but what a wonderful novel or biography he would make!
