There was an Austrian pianist named Paul Wittgenstein who served in the Austrian army attacking Poland, was wounded and captured by the Russians, and had his right arm amputated. After the war he continued to perform using only his left hand.
He commissioned and performed many works until his death in 1961 from composers such as:
Benjamin Britten: Diversions for Piano (left hand) and Orchestra; Op. 21
Paul Hindemith: Klaviermusik (Concerto for Piano and Orchestra); Op. 29
Erich Wolfgang Korngold: Piano Concerto for the Left Hand in C-sharp; Op. 17
Serge Prokofiev: Piano Concerto No. 4; Op. 53
Maurice Ravel: Piano Concerto for the Left Hand in D Major
Franz Schmidt: Concertante Variations on a Theme of Beethoven
Piano Concerto No. 2 in E-flat.
Richard Strauss: Parergon from Sinfonia Domestica, for piano (left hand) and
orchestra; Op. 73
Panathenäenzug, Symphonic Studies in the form of a Passacagila
for piano (left hand) and orchestra; Op. 74
My own favorite is the Ravel Left Hand Concerto. It is a haunting piece that conveys the Horror of war (and the absolute horror of a musician losing an arm) beautifully.
