About This Item
A scarce edition. WorldCat lists only one copy, at the British Library (there dated 1809). The authenticity, that is, the ascription of the music to Gelinek, is doubtful. The work does not appear in the lists of his works in MGG2 or Grove. As Milan Poštolka notes in Grove Music Online, quite a few spurious works were published under his name because he was so popular at the time. The Czech composer and pianist was tutor to the Kinsky family and a close associate of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven. Most of Gelinek's compositions were piano variations based on melodies from stage works or instrumental works, and he wrote early piano reductions of several of Beethoven's symphonies. Mozarts's cadenzas k 624/626a for piano concertos were dedicated to Gelinek by the publisher Artaria (1801).
