Known as Il Divino Boemo ( the Divine Bohemian), Josef Mysliveček (1737-1781) made a significant contribution to the formation of late eighteenth century classicism in music and was one of the most celebrated opera composers of the time.
“He was unquestionably one of the greatest models for the young Mozart in composition, and he had a close personal relationship with Mozart that was unique,” said the American musicologist Daniel Evan Freeman.
This exciting Mannes Sounds production is presenting opera selections from both Mysliveček and Mozart, as well as instrumental works: piano sonatas and chamber music for strings and winds.
