A virtuoso pianist and inspired composer for his instrument, he left behind numerous sonatas and three concertos, fleeting testimonies to his immense, magnificently pre-romantic talent that had only just began to blossom. Here, his work is paired with those of the elder Mozart, united in the precociousness of their production and their death.
