According to Marek Toporowski, the French composer Hyacinthe Jadin (1776–1800) was the author of ‘the greatest masterpieces of the French literature for the fortepiano from the time of the Revolution.’ Dying in poverty from tuberculosis at the age of 25, Jadin nonetheless achieved much in his brief life, composing both orchestral and chamber music with a bias towards his own instrument of the piano, such as concertos and these sonatas with optional violin accompaniment. Several published collections have not survived – or not been recovered – including a further 12 sonatas for the keyboard.
