For me, it's a pity the coupling is the Emperor - ther are just so many recordings!

In any case, we have strayed out of the romantic era and into the classical - Reicha 1804, Emperor 1809.

Reicha's on the cusp of early romanticism, I'd say.

Mmm, well I for one don't have a recording of it so it'd work for me. Obviously I'm not most people.

Reicha's on the cusp of early romanticism, I'd say.

Reicha was born in the same year as Beethoven and very much went past Classicism into Romanticism in his own way. Some of his music is pretty out there for the early 1800s.

Absolutely right! You never quite know what he's going to do next...
