Kikuko Ogura 《The World of Forte Piano》 15th
Mozart in Salzburg
2025/10/03(Fr.) 18:30 Starting
The Mozart family of Salzburg is known to have had a Spät tangentenflugel. The tangent flugel, with its simple mechanism of striking the strings with a tangent, was an attractive instrument that existed during the transitional period when the popularity of the harpsichord shifted to the fortepiano, with its unique ability to add strength and weakness through changes in touch. Stein's fortepiano, which developed the Viennese action, is perfect for Mozart's light, chatty music.
J.G. Eckardt went to Paris with Stein and stayed there permanently. He was a composer who greatly influenced the young Mozart. C.P.E. Bach was a major presence for classical composers. As a boy, Mozart was also familiar with his keyboard music. J.A.Szczepan, music teacher to Marie-Antoinette, composed the Sonatas Op.1-3, which were popular in Salzburg at the time, and I.v.Beke, who had a performance duel with Mozart in Munich in 1774~75. This showdown, which resulted in praise for Böke's performance technique and expressiveness, was held on Stein's fortepiano, and it is said that Stein became enamored with Böke. Two years later, Mozart visited Stein's workshop and wrote a letter praising the instrument. L.v. Beethoven, who was in Bonn, also trained on a Stein fortepiano. The "Sonata for Elector" was Beethoven's ambitious work at the age of 12. The Sonata for Baron Durnitz, which Mozart himself highly appreciated, and other works popular at the time on the two keyboard instruments that inspired Mozart during his Salzburg period are presented.
