J. L. Dussek (1760-1812) had a brilliant career as a pianist and composer. His relationships with two harpists (one of whom he married) led to his composing several works for the harp, distinguishing him from most composers of the period.
the timbres of the Grecian harp and square piano interweave and complement each other beautifully. The playing is excellent throughout - Early Music Review
