Leopold kozeluh was just the right composer at the right time. Maybe his works have fallen in obscurity because they where not "evergreens" but rather in the fashion of his era. His symphonies are also worth listening.
How could everyone don't know this lovely composer? I am right now studying this guy as in the name of 1750 MDCCL Lovely Times, the Classical Era Year begins.
Kozeluch is melodic, his harmonization is light, the sonority and instrumentation is brilliant, all this is the classicism "galant" (rococo) before Beethoven.
Thanks for placing this fine concerto. Leopold Kozeluch is one of my favorite composers and in his time not much less popular then Mozart or Van Beethoven. For me no day without Kozeluch. Everything you place I appreciate very much!
I fell in love with his music as a teenager after discovering his sinfonia concertante for mandolin, trumpet, double bass and piano! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recording.
Se agradece a sibarit101 difundir a grandes compositores poco conocidos, como Kozeluch, entre otros. Este concierto es muy hermoso, con evidentes aires mozartianos.
Thanks for all your comments. I think there are too many unjustly neglected composers, that's why I am very glad when their music is listened and appreciated.
How many piano concertos did he compose ? I know he has written some 50 piano sonatas and there are already two complete recordings of them on fortepiano.
If someone killed Mozart... this was him... (JOKE) He is not as talented as Mozart for sure but his works are clean and sweet, if not fascinating ... to many useless notes, trying to hard, some bits are very cool then it falls in banalities again, listening to this make the others stand out even more. A for effort... C for originality... C for orchestral skills... a complete rebuilding using some of the material could lead to a stunning piece... there is gold in this!!!
Thanks for the evaluation! :) Of course, not all composers are called Mozart or Beethoven. But it is good that we listen, sometimes with pleasure, to the music of composers who are now considered minors, but in their time they were very appreciated. The tastes of listeners evolve, who knows what somebody will say about this music in about 50 years?

You are absolutely right: pleasent works, not "evergreens".

I have posted from his music and I will post because I like it too. Thank you very much!
Der Namenlos placed this concerto already in 2014, but with less information about this great composer.
Pieter Domburg veel getalenteerde muzikanten uit de 18e en vroege 19e eeuw kwamen uit Bohemen. Dat kan toch geen toeval zijn?
Helemaal mee eens. Zeker geen toeval.
ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!!!! THANKS FOR UPLOADING!!!!

Kozeluch não gostava muito de Mozart.

couldn't find the third concert
Not all his concertos were recorded.

This is really a very nice concert - but sorry, such a mediocre pianist :-( He misses any feeling for this classical style.
