Antonio Salieri, Compl... - Filippo Pantieri - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Antonio Salieri was influential as an opera composer and, later in life, as a teacher to the likes of Beethoven, Schubert, and Liszt – quite unlike the sinister and entirely fictional portrayal he received in the film Amadeus. Both of his keyboard concertos were composed during his early years in Vienna and reflect influences from Haydn and the galant style of Johann Christian Bach. The Harpsichord Concerto in B flat major is broader and more elaborate but lighter in mood when compared with the stormy first movement of the Harpsichord Concerto in C major. Heard here in its world première recording, the Keyboard Sonata in C major presents as a suite of short independent pieces, while the short March in D major has only recently been discovered in a Berlin archive.
