Carl David Stegmann (1751 - 1826) was a tenor, keyboard player, conductor, and composer, who worked mostly in the field of opera. Employed by the Court Theatre in Mainz (where he sang in the first German-language production of Don Giovanni), he also gave a number of acclaimed performances in Frankfurt. Trained as an organist, he made transcriptions of string quintets by Mozart and Beethoven's Trios, Op. 9 as well as keyboard transcriptions of twenty-five of Haydn's symphonies. Ivan Ilic writes: 'It is unclear to me whether these transcriptions were ever meant to be played as concert repertoire, in public. Nevertheless, the enthusiasm I have encountered wherever I have played them has persuaded me to make this recording, to allow more people to hear Stegmann's idiomatic arrangements.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Haydn \/ Ilic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32477131276359,"sku":"39283764","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3699336-2413584.jpg?v=1711025533","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/haydn-ilic-ivan-ilic-plays-haydn","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
