Bochsa, NC :: Nocturne Concertant
Bochsa, born in 1789, was a harpist and in 1813 he was engaged at the court of Emperor Napoleon and later at the court of King Louis XVIII. In 1822, at the founding of the Royal Academy of Music, he was named Professor of harp. In 1831 he began giving concerts. Bochsa expanded both the playing techniques and the sound possibilities of the new double-pedal Erard harp.
Of the 'Trois Noctunres concertans ouvre 71 (composed ca. 1818), the third and present Nocturne in g-minor stands out in its rich invention and brilliance. After a simple introduction, a compellingly original theme dominates the virtuosic main body of the piece, ending in an operatic stretta.
