This new recordings presents the complete works for pianoforte 4-hands, ranging from sonatas of substantial proportions and virtuosity (Op.9 and Op.29) to the lighter sonatas Op.12, accessible also to Liebhaber, to borrow Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach’s term.

The recent Kozeluch revival, featuring recordings of his solo, chamber and orchestral music, has demonstrated his status as one of the most important figures in the whole of Viennese Classicism. This double album dedicated to Kozeluch’s works for fortepiano four-hands provides further confirmation of his compositional mastery, on a level bearing comparison with his contemporaries.

Leopold Antoniìn Kozeluch was born on 26 June 1747 in Velvary, to the north-west of Prague. He began his musical career in 1771 as a composer of ballet music and in 1778 decided to abandon the study of the law and to move to Vienna, where in a short time he was able to establish himself as a composer and performer thanks to his indisputable musical qualities and his ability to cultivate good relations to sustain and expand his activities. In 1792, after the death of Mozart, Emperor Franz II invited to him to take up the post of Kammer Kapellmeister and Hofmusik Compositor (it would appear at double the salary Mozart had received); Kozeluch remained in this post until his death in 1818.

Building upon stylistic influences inherited from his teacher František Xaver Dušek (the first Czech composer to approach the four-hands piano genre in a manner neither frivolous nor didactic), Kozeluch committed himself to composing for keyboard duo, raising its aesthetic and technical level and contributing to the evolution of a concert hall repertoire worthy of the same attention as solo sonatas.

The large-scale works were recorded on an original fortepiano constructed in Vienna by Johann Schantz in the early years of the 19th century and therefore contemporary with Kozeluch. The Duo Op.19 and Trio Sonatas Op.12 Nos. 1 and 2, with their domestic character, were recorded on the Longman & Broderip square piano, a type of instrument extremely popular in the households of the day and therefore appropriate for Hausmusik.

Performed by Marius Bartoccini and Ilario Gregoletto, both specialists of historic instruments and avid researchers of forgotten repertoire.

Si avvicina il debutto di Ariadne auf Naxos, il 15 aprile nella produzione firmata da Sven-Eric Bechtolf con la direzione di Michael Boder. L’opera di Strauss su libretto di von Hofmannsthal racconta della curiosa serata a casa di un ricco viennese che decide di regalare ai propri ospiti un’opera seria e una farsa, che a causa del prolungarsi della cena impone di fondere in un sola rappresentazione.

Il Prologo è dedicato alla preparazione dell’assurdo spettacolo e vede un giovane e velleitario compositore confrontarsi con la maliziosa attrice Zerbinetta. Alla fine l’opera viene messa in scena: Ariadne auf Naxos vede l’epico incontro tra Arianna abbandonata e il dio Bacco arricchito dalla presenza di Zerbinetta che espone con allegria la sua fatalista visione dell’amore.
