Pleyel: Clarinet Chamb... - Luigi Magistrelli - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Ignaz Pleyel (1757-1831), one of the most multifaceted composers of any time, being active in various fields as a composer, performer, publisher and piano builder. He was born in Lower Austria, he studied with Johann Baptist Vanhal, and from 1772 he became the pupil of Joseph Haydn in Eisenstadt, who considered him to be a superb student. After that he became a publisher in Paris (Maison Pleyel).

This new recording presents chamber music in which the clarinet plays a leading role: a beautiful Quintet for piano, oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon, duos and a trio for clarinet(s), bassoon or viola. Music containing “many a good tune”, brilliantly written for the instruments, providing ample opportunity for the display of virtuosity and “Spielfreude”.

Played by The Italian Consort and Luigi Magistrelli, one of the foremost clarinet players of Italy.
