Ignaz Moscheles (1794-1870) was one of the leading piano virtuosos of the 19 th century. He<br />
performed works by himself and others, including improvisations and fantasies, and was also a<br />
concert organiser. Moscheles appears to have enjoyed a good relationship with his "competitors",<br />
many of whom were his friends. They even played music together: if only recordings had been<br />
invented when he performed with Hummel and Mendelssohn, and extemporised with Liszt or<br />
Chopin.<br />
Here the Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt presents Moscheles's Sixth Piano<br />
Concerto and his only two works without piano: the overture to Schiller's "Maid of Orleans" and his<br />
one symphony.
