About Salomon Jadassohn
Salomon Jadassohn was a German pianist, composer, and teacher at the Leipzig Conservatory. First educated locally, Jadassohn enrolled at the Leipzig Conservatory in 1848, just a few years after it had been founded by Felix Mendelssohn. Since Jadassohn's death, his music has been seldom performed, but in the 21st century a reevaluation of it has begun with new performances and recordings.
