Jan Ladislav Dussek (baptized Jan Václav Dusík,[1] with surname also written as Duschek or Düssek; 12 February 1760 – 20 March 1812) was
aCzechcomposer and pianist. He was an important representative of Czech music abroad in the second half of the 18th century and the beginning of
the19thcentury. Some of his more forward-looking piano works have traits often associated with Romanticism.[2]Dussek was a predecessor of the
Romanticcomposers for piano, especially Chopin, Schumann and Mendelssohn.[44] Many of his works are strikingly atodds with the prevailing late
Classical styleof other composers of the time. However, despite his departure from the mainstream idiom of contemporarieslike Haydn and Mozart,
Dussek's stylisticinfluence over later composers was limited since his works remained highly obscure and largely unknownoutside England. The evolution
of style found inDussek's piano writing suggests he pursued an independent line of development, one that anticipated butdid not influence early
Romanticism.
His more notable works include several large-scale solo piano pieces, piano sonatas, many piano concertos, sonatas for violin and piano, a
musicaldrama,and various works of chamber music, including a Trio for piano, horn and violin, and the highly unusual sonata for piano, violin, cello
andpercussionentitled The Naval Battle and Total Defeat of the Dutch by Admiral Duncan (1797, C 152), which is an extremely rare example of pre-20th-
centurychamber music that includes percussion. « hide |
