About

These pieces by Ignaz Joseph Pleyel, and recorded here by the Consortium Classicum, use the original versions of these works found by the ensemble’s founder Dieter Klöcker in autographed scores or contemporary copies in libraries and museums in Germany and Bohemia.
 
Pleyel, the twenty-fourth child in a teacher’s family of thirty-eight children, served as music director in various European cities and during the French Revolution, only barely escaped the guillotine. As soon as the revolutionary turmoil had subsided, however, he returned to Paris, where he opened a music shop and founded a piano company still in existence today.
