Composer: Johann Joseph Fux (1660-1741)
Harpsichordist: Filippo Emanuel Ravizza

Johann Joseph Fux was one of the most successful Austrian composers of his time (The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica, 2021). Fux became the royal court composer of the Holy Roman emperor Leopold I in 1698; in addition to the posts of deputy kapellmeister (1705–12), kapellmeister (1712–15), and court kapellmeister (1715–41) at St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Vienna (The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica, 2021). Perhaps one of Fux's most notable contributions to music was his book "Gradus ad Parnassum," which attempted to systematize contrapuntal practices; it was studied by Wolfgang A. Mozart, Joseph Hayden, and other 18th century composers (The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica, 2021). I do hope that you enjoy this beautiful piece of music.
