If you're asking, that must mean that you've been listening to his Minuet in G, opus 14 No. 1, yes?

He had that one hit, which is good listening, but very retro. Also, since he is remembered mostly because of just that one piece, I've always thought of him as a one-hit wonder.

During his lifetime, I think his reputation was mostly as a performer rather than as a composer.

In answer to the post that you deleted, all you have to remember is:

-- Great piano man

-- One-hit-wonder composer
