Johann Wanhal
(Vanhal) was an important
classical composer from
Bohemian/Czech heritage
(1739-1813). His main
living was as an organist
and choirmaster, however
Wanhal's musical output
as a composer includes
over a dozen concerti,
many symphonies, chamber
music, operas and much
sacred music including 58
masses.
Wanhal is
rumored to have played
chamber music with
Mozart, Haydn and
Dittersdorf, with Wanhal
on the cello.
In the
1770's Wanhal met the
contrabassist Johannes
Matthias Sperger and
wrote a double bass
concerto for him. The
Concerto is in the key of
E-Flat (original key of D
for the double bass) in
three movements and has
been expertly arranged
for Tuba and Piano by Ms.
Janet Yarbrough of Duke
University.
This work
is available for solo
Tuba with Wind
Ensemble.
