The generation before Chopin - the cusp of Romanticism - is documented
here with an overture from one of Kurpinski's most successful operas
(1819) and his single-movement clarinet concerto from 1823, brilliant
and full of virtuosic passagework. Lessel's first concerto is lost but
his second (1810) is firmly established in the lyrical vein of late
Mozart. The brief cantata is in the tradition of gentle, pastoral
cantatas of the Bohemian school.
