Carl Czerny is well known as Beethoven’s pupil and amanuensis; as a pianist and piano teacher in his own right, and even to pianophiles as an important composer for the instrument. Pietro Delle Chiaie now illuminates another side to this influential figure in early- Romantic Europe, with the first-ever complete collection of Czerny’s organ music.
Every serious piano student nowadays works their way through Czerny’s exhaustive collections of studies, which refine every aspect of piano technique. As a former student, however, Franz Liszt regarded Czerny’s creative abilities highly enough to invite him in 1837 to contribute to a jointly composed piece, the Hexameron, alongside the likes of Chopin and Thalberg.
