Aurelia Visovan (fortepiano)About
Franz Schubert and Carl Czerny – two contemporaries, living in the same city, both tightly connected to Beethoven in their own way. Schubert ascended into glory, being regarded nowadays as one of the leading composers of Western music history; Czerny, albeit a highly prolific composer and very cherished pupil of Beethoven, remained in the popular recollection mostly as a teacher and creator of numerous study works of little musical value. Czerny's Grande Sonate in D minor, by far the longest out of his eleven sonatas, was written immediately after Beethoven's death and can be regarded as an attempt to reach the realms of the Beethoven's ‘Hammerklavier’ Sonata: with its seven movements and spectacular technical challenges, the work is a long-forgotten masterpiece which deserves its place among the great oeuvres of the 19th century.
