Born into a family of French musicians, Jassant Jadin began composing at the age of 8 and was such a prodigy that his works were performed at the famous \"Concert Spiritsuelle\" at age 13. Thereafter, for 11 years until his death at the age of 24 from tuberculosis, he was active as a pianist and composer during the turbulent years of the French Revolution, writing works with a rich individuality that was in a league with Schubert and Dushek. Marek Toporowski, whose essay in the booklet introduces Jadin's life and works, plays a Paul McNulty-built Anton Walter model fortepiano. About the work Jadin's piano sonatas are characterized by their lyricism and delicacy, especially in the slow movements, which often explore more introspective and meditative themes, but also by their virtuosity, with many of the faster movements featuring complex passagework and figurations that require the performer to use The fast movements are often characterized by complex passagework and figuration, demanding a high level of technical skill from the performers. ＜Marek Toporowski (fortepiano) was born in Warsaw on March 19, 1964.
