Synopsis

Album Description
Despite the loss of one eye at the age of seven, Friedrich Kuhlau (1786-1832) went on to become one of the greatest musicians of his era behind the mighty triumvirate of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven (with whom he got drunk one night). Born in Germany, he became a Danish citizen where he made a living as pianist and eventually composer to the Danish royal court. His piano sonatas and sonatinas are known to every advanced piano student and often rival those of Beethoven.
