opis

Today, his work "has no significant presence in recordings or concert life," states the boundless internet for those seeking information on the life and work of composer, pianist, and priest Johann Franz Xaver Sterkel (1750–1817). This perception, however, will have to change in the foreseeable future, for what has recently resurfaced from the legacy of this versatile Würzburg-born musician awakens a curiosity that deepens with each encounter and is rewarded with ever-surprising creations. Now, alongside the three highly acclaimed chamber works released by cpo in November (555 499-2), two of his once widely performed symphonies join the spotlight, as well as one of the six piano concertos he composed – pieces that served both to showcase his classically refined, virtuosic eloquence and to bring universal delight in his presence.

•Johann Franz Xaver Sterkel: Symphony in E-Flat Major, Op. 11 No. 3, StWV 127 / 3
