Sir Charles Burney, the famous observer of European music, was quite correct. This city on the Danube was bubbling over with talents and masters who all made their livelihood there. This included Johann Baptist Wanhal, one of the innumerable Bohemians that tried their luck in the shadow of the court palace. He contributed many beautiful pieces to his preferred medium of instrumental music. The small selection of the present production alone well demonstrates that Wanhal was able to hold his own in the symphonic genre next to Joseph Haydn, who was seven years his senior. Subtle orchestral colours, a fine sense for dramatic events, especially in the minor keys, and striking melodies are characteristic of the creations that were enjoyed not only in the old imperial city.","brand":"CPO","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46012439363818,"sku":"761203543328","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4442526-3418363.jpg?v=1778192990"},{"product_id":"bohmische-raritaten","title":"Böhmische Raritäten \/ Duo Connessione","description":"In his musical travelogue from 1773, the English musician and musicologist Charles Burney described Bohemia as the \"conservatory of Europe\". The country, now part of the Czech Republic, was then part of the Austrian Empire and from here came many outstanding composers who, if they did not stay in the country, worked not only in Vienna and other Austrian cultural centers, but also at the courts of all Europe and in the German, Italian and French metropolises. The word \"Bohemian\" encompasses the Czech and German language areas of the Czech lands. No wonder that Czech and Bohemian music has fascinated many musicians and musicologists for three centuries.","brand":"Ars Produktion","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46012443656426,"sku":"4260052386033","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4057303-2799861.jpg?v=1778243237"},{"product_id":"vanhal-keyboard-capriccios","title":"Vanhal: Keyboard Capriccios","description":"One of the leading composers of the Classical and early Romantic eras, Johann Baptist Vaňhal played a vital role in the development of Viennese music between 1750 and 1780. He composed prolifically in many genres, including a large number of quartets, symphonies, sacred works, vocal and instrumental works, including around 150 piano sonatas and sonatinas. Vaňhal was at his most inspirational and improvisational in his keyboard Capriccios composed in the 1780s, which are some of the most creative examples of the Viennese Classical style, not least in their almost symphonic force.","brand":"Grand Piano","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46013164683498,"sku":"747313968022","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/2829787.jpg?v=1778305505"},{"product_id":"johann-baptist-vanhal-sonaten-fur-klarinette-und-180843","title":"Johann Baptist Vanhal: Sonaten Fur Klarinette Und Hammerklavier","description":"Classical Music","brand":"Gramola Records","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46017279557866,"sku":"9003643989887","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/2355588.jpg?v=1778311628"},{"product_id":"johann-baptist-vanhal-four-string-quartets-88055","title":"Johann Baptist Vanhal: Four String Quartets","description":"One may rightly claim that Johann Baptist Vanhal (1739-1813), who traced his roots to Bohemia, was one of the most productive composers of the 18th c. + He wrote a total of 1,377 (!) works; sixty string quartets having appeared in print through to 1787, with thirty-six others in manuscript or documented in catalogue entries. + Quantity aside, Vanhal quite early gained fame with the quality of his works. + For CPO, the Lotus String Quartet, which gained notice with its triumph at the Int’l Chamber Music Competition in Osaka, Japan in 1994, interprets a selection of these quartets.","brand":"CPO","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46025347465450,"sku":"761203747528","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/2804816.jpg?v=1778311938"},{"product_id":"johann-baptist-vanhal-two-symphonies-cello-concerto-165747","title":"Johann Baptist Vanhal: Two Symphonies; Cello Concerto","description":"Vanhal numbers among the most productive composers of the 18th century.
