Description:

Romantic Piano Concerto Vol. 71! Piano Concertos by Carl Czerny! Hyperion's very popular series, "Romantic Piano Concerto Series (RPCS)", which discovers and revives unknown piano concertos of the Romantic era, presents the 71st collection of piano concertos by Carl Czerny (1791-1857), a great musician of the early Austrian Romantic era. Czerny, who studied under Beethoven and trained Liszt, is best known today as the composer of "Piano Exercises," but he was also a prolific composer who left more than 1,000 works including piano sonatas, numerous paraphrases, chamber music, symphonies, and concertos in addition to his didactic works. Master pianist Howard Shelley, who has become a regular on the RPC series, brings back to life unknown aspects of Czerny's career in this world premiere recording of "Concerto in F major" and "Rondo Brillante.
