Product description
Six delightful sonatas have been selected from the complete edition of Leopold Kozeluh piano sonatas published by Bärenreiter – namely the easiest, as this album is specifically aimed at beginner and moderately advanced pianists. The edition includes Piano Sonatas No. 37 in G major, No. 47 in E-flat major, No. 7 in D major, No. 46 in C major, No. 10 in F major and No. 14 in G major, inviting pianists to explore the piano music of the Viennese Classic.
Leopold Kozeluh (born Jan Antonin Kozeluh) (1747 - 1818) was a Czech composer and pedagogue. The composer Jan Antonin Kozeluh was his cousin and taught him music for some time. To avoid misunderstandings and confusion with his cousin, he changed his first name to Leopold. About four hundred of Kozeluh's compositions have survived to this day. These include some thirty symphonies, 22 piano concertos including one concerto for four-hand piano, two concertos for clarinet, 24 violin sonatas, 63 piano trios and six string quartets. Kozeluh's work was acclaimed throughout Europe and during his lifetime he was already one of the most important musical figures of the late 18th century.
