Türk saw the keyboard sonata as the perfect medium for expressing the boldest and most experimental of ideas, and the Klaviersonaten Grössentheils für Kenner was his only collection dedicated to professional players. Symphonic novelties, exquisite polyphony and extreme contrasts of character and register are vividly brought to life on four historical keyboards from the Department of Musical Instruments at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis recording was made on period instruments:\u003cbr\u003eSonata No. 1: Fortepiano by Conrad Graf (Vienna, Austria, ca. 1838);\u003cbr\u003eSonata No. 2: Clavichord by Christian Kintzing (Neuwied, Germany, 1763);\u003cbr\u003eSonatas Nos. 3 \u0026amp; 4: Grand Piano by Ferdinand Hofmann (Vienna, Austria, ca. 1790);\u003cbr\u003eSonata No. 5 and Sinfonia No. 6: Grand Piano, attr. to Johann Schmidt (Salzburg, Austria, ca. 1790–95)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTürk, Daniel Gottlob\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e 6 Keyboard Sonatas for Connoisseurs: Sonata No. 1 in A Minor\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1 I.
