    Poland virtuoso violinist and composer, 18-19th centuries, friend and competitor of Paganini. He played for all Europe and once he did the "Kreutzer" with Liszt. He wrote some symphonies and chamber pieces but the major part of his production was for the violin. Superficial but brillant and technically very effective works. He left four concertos (a fifth is lost) and many short works. Do you know him?

    An unjustly neglected German composer, pianist and teacher (1817-1993), Mendelssohn's pupil, friend of Schumann, who praised his works. He wrote two symphonies, two violin concertos and many very fine chamber instrumental works, in the best tradition of 19th century and IMO is as good as any. In particular, his string quartets, quintets and sextets are some of the best romantic chamber. Do you know him?
