Description
Pianist Marek Toporowski performs works by Czech composer and piano virtuoso Jan Ladislav Dussek.
Jan Ladislav Dussek (1760-1812) was an important representative of Czech music at the end of Classicism and beginning of Romanticism. His rich artistic output gained recognition mainly due to his innovative piano works and numerous symphonies. Dussek significantly contributed to the spread of English pianos in Europe, which implied further development of construction of these instruments. The album contains three Piano Sonatas, Op. 9 and the cycle The Sufferings of the Queen of France, Op. 23 performed by world-renowned Marek Toporowski.
Marek Toporowski (b.1964) is a Polish pianist, harpsichordist, organist and conductor. He is Head of the Department of Early Music at the Academy in Krakow. In 1985 he was the laureate of the First Polish Harpsichord Competition named after Wanda Landowska in Krakow.
