Who wants to support our project on Kickstater<\/a>? We (Trio Klengel) would like to reach our fundraising goal and make this recording happen!<\/p>\n

About the composer:
\nThe name of the German composer August Alexander Klengel<\/a> (1783-1852) is mentioned nowadays only in relation with his two volumes of works,\u201cCanons and Fugues,\u201d which were written during the last 25 years of his life.<\/p>\n

Everything else from his creative work is either forgotten or completely ignored and unknown.<\/p>\n

However, his music deserves our attention as in his early works Klengel clearly shines as an early romantic composer, undoubtedly being an inspiration for many of his young fellow composers at the time (Mendelssohn and Chopin, just to name a few).<\/p>\n

The compositions\u2019 titles are hinting their content: Romances, Nocturnes… Surprisingly, no one has yet looked seriously into his scores and so this will be the first recording that will attempt to do so.<\/p>\n

The following works by Klengel will be included in this CD:<\/p>\n

Romance (op.6) \u2013 for Piano
\n Nocturne No.5 (op. 23) \u2013 for Piano
\n Fantaisie sur un th\u00e8me russe (op.25 ) \u2013 for Piano
\n Trois romances (op. 34) – for Piano
\n Air suisse avec variations (op.32) – for Violin and Piano
\n Trio (op. 36) for Violin, Cello and Piano<\/a><\/p>\n

We are very grateful to Toccata Classics<\/a> who has chosen to release our recording.
\nWe would like to thank the Museum Behnhaus Dr\u00e4gerhaus L\u00fcbeck<\/a> for the kind permission to use the portrait of A. A. Klengel by Vogel von Vogelstein.<\/p>\n

Thanks to all who understand the hard work and dedication that we put into this project. We will not be able to do this alone, so we truly rely on you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
