Taubert: Piano Sonatas... - Lucas Wong - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Wilhelm Taubert was a significant composer and teacher in Berlin during a period when the city began to rival Vienna and Paris as a European musical powerhouse. Though it was also a time when the piano had reached its zenith in size and tonal depth, Taubert’s graceful, conservative style was perfectly suited to the instrument. His sonatas fuse Beethovenian elements with those of Weber and feature slow movements that draw on rich operatic lyricism reminiscent of Rossini or Cherubini.
