JAN LADISLAV DUSSEK

12thFebruary 1760 --- 20thMarch 1812

Jan Ladislav Dussek was a czech composer born 1761 and died in 1812. Compared to other classical composers of piano
pieces of the time,  he held a higher position then his other contemporaries.  After many wandering on the continent, he
tried his hand at publishing in London, but the business failed and plunged him into debt.

At last in 1808 he entered the service of Prince Talleyrand in Paris, and re-established his  finances. Dussek as Riemann
says,  was one of the first, if not the first to make the piano "sing". Though they are not often heard in the concert room
his piano compositions have life in them yet, and are distinguished by their noble, pleasant character.

It is interesting to know  that most of the music of Don Giovanni was  composed when Mozart  was on a visit to Dussek
whose house was a scene of great resort and revelry while Mozart was his guest.

The above was written by Cuthbert Haddon in 1916.
