Early Polish Romanticism - Franciszek Lessel "Lessel was the most important Polish composer in the generation before Chopin. Unfortunately, most of his compositions are lost, but this release offers a substantial amount of what still exists. The sonata dates from around 1800 and was dedicated to Haydn, whose late sonatas they resemble but with the addition of a pre-Romantic lyricism in slow movements." -Records International TRACKS: 1.
