Born to a family of millers but declining the family business for a profession in music Myslivecek was for a period, one of the most successful symphonists and composers of opera serie living and touring in Italy. His respect for the Italianate models is reflected in this late keyboard sonata destined for beginners and collectors but also in the admiration of Mozart who referred to several of the composer's works for inspiration. Originally categorised as a lesson, the sonata offers a glimpse into the fertile imagination of this genial composer.---Geboren in eine Familie von Müllern verliess er das Familienunternehmen zugunsten der Musik. Myslivecek reiste für einige Zeit als einer der erfolgreichsten Symphoniker und Komponisten der Opera seria durch Italien. Seinen grossen Respekt für den italienischen Stil spiegelt sich in der vorliegenden, späten Klaviersonate genauso, wie seine Bewunderung für Mozart, dem er die Inspiration zu vielen seiner Werke verdankte. Ursprünglich als Übung kategorisiert erlaubt die Sonate einen Einblick in die fruchtbare Phantasie des genialen Komponisten.

Middle C is c'

Allegro con spirito

M.10(a). The use of embellishments and graces in the ms. should be treated with caution since many – adopting the characteristics of the handwritten style of the copyist – appear suspect, bordering on the unintelligible. These appear to have been added as an afterthought but those like the long shake (below) conform with the rules for their u...
