Johann Joseph Rosler (1771-1812) was a composer, conductor and pianist who was active in Prague and Vienna. Later he was in the service of Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz. His Piano Concerto No. 2 in E-flat major of 1803 is a fitting companion to the piano concertos of Beethoven; indeed, his first Piano Concerto in D major was mistakenly attributed to Beethoven until 1925.
Now Rosler's second Piano Concerto is appearing in print for the first time. This is due to editor Alena Honigova discovering and identifying an autograph score which is the only preserved source in the Prague Conservatory archive. In this Urtext edition Honigova takes into account the distinctive features of Rosler's handwriting and the division of parts in the score, as befits the performance practice of his day.
