Actually I think Salieri is very underrated (and Mozart very overrated but that's another matter).

On the topic, I wonder if any of you are Salieri experts enough to know whether he has composed any keyboard only works.

Yes he has composed smaller pieces, but very few of his works have survived.

Any idea where to find any sheet music for these? No matter how small a piece?

Grr I have to find them and record them for our pianosociety. So we can get a Salieri entry. There are the variations that Mozart wrote on mio caro adone, but that would go under Mozart and not Salieri.

I am not sure if this is for piano solo, but schaum is a piano-only publisher as far as I know. at least it is cheap.

After he died the only work of his to stay within the repertoire of many oropera houses was his opera The Danaides, first performed in 1784. The opera is today considered a masterpiece, his only masterpiece. It is exceedingly influenced by Gluck. Interestingly, he was one of the cofounders of the Academy of Music in Vienna.

I have heard Les Danaides and I think it is very good. I just wish I found some scores for piano of anything he ever composed.

Yes I have spent quite some time trying to find pieces of him (well I haven´t done any deep research). But the piece "he" is playing in Amadeus, is it one of his own compositions?

In the movie, that march he wrote for Mozart's arrival, wow, that was bad. Luckily Mozart came to the rescue.

That's right, I've always read that Salieri taught Liszt theory.


https://chopinmusic.net/forum/composer.php?c=liszt , paragraph 2

So it's true...

Not sure if that's actually by him, but in a scene when they first show him teaching the emperor and they are playing some four handed piece. You can't hear much of that but at least it sounds more like a decent classical piece.

Yes, that was the one I was thinking of. I wonder what it is.

Maybe we should start researching and mailing Amadeus producers.

We can lead the way to a renewal of the Salieri the keyboard composer.
