A Walk with Wölfl Part IV
Haydn’s oratorio “Die Schöpfung” had a massive impact in 1798 and remained immensely popular after that. In “A Walk with Wölfl Part IV”, we hear how Joseph Wölfl (1773-1912) skillfully anticipated this in a sonata for piano and violin. Vienna became too small for him, so in 1800 he started travelling a lot in Germany and Bohemia, and still found time to compose in the postal coach. We will hear the finale of a piano concerto and parts of Wölfl’s Trios Op. 23.
