♬ Album introduction

Mozart's only disciple, Hummel, was a composer who lived almost the same time as Beethoven. He was considered one of the best pianists of his time, and he was also a person who greatly influenced Chopin, a junior composer. In his many piano works, including a piano concerto and a piano trio, the merits of Mozart and Beethoven are well harmonized, and the fluid and beautiful melody is impressive. Hummel: A collection of variations for the piano, Adagio based on the theme of the British song <Beautiful Poly>, Variations and Rondo in E flat major, Op.75, Variations in A major, Op.76, Variations on German songs, Op.21 in B flat major, etc. : Joanna Trcechiak (piano).
