Phillip Sear plays a barcarolle by Josef Rheinberger. Liechtenstein's greatest 19th century composer.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liechtenstein's most famous musician, Josef Rheinberger (1839-1901) studied in Munich, and though best known as a composer of organ sonatas, also wrote a fair quantity of piano music (probably as much piano as organ music!).  This piece comes from an 1866 set of three character pieces dedicated to his friend the Leipzig-based composer (and former military officer) Franz von Holstein (1826-78).
