Albrechtsberger's "Concerto for Jews Harp, Mandolin & Orchestra" was played on a local classical music station (KCSC, Edmond, OK) recently. Is there any information on this concerto and its unusual instrumentation? 4.245.56.53 03:34, 3 January 2007 (UTC) B. EricksonReply


He wrote 2 Concertos for that combination. I have them on record.92.4.140.175 (talk) 02:15, 30 August 2008 (UTC)Reply


Lessons with Monn

edit

Albrechtsberger cannot have taken lessons with Monn in 1755, because Monn died in 1750. There is absolutely no proof that Albrechtsberger ever was Monn's pupil.--Suessmayr (talk) 06:14, 6 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Biography

This paragraph:

"When Beethoven was finished studying with Albrechtsberger he decided to get a few more tips and pointers, so to speak, from Haydn. From there Beethoven possibly studied with Antonio Salieri, but this is unknown as a fact. It is also quite possible that Beethoven went off on his own to make a living, and only then returned after he had a stable career."

While very relevant to Beethoven, seems out of place in this biography of Albrechtsberger. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.253 (talk) 23:24, 10 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
