Leonard von Call

Born: 19th March 1767, Eppan an der Weinstraße, Italy

Died: 19th February 1815, Vienna, Austria

Nationality: Austrian

Leonhard von Call sometimes referred to as "Leonhard de Call", was an Austrian composer and virtuoso on the mandolin and guitar. During his lifetime he focused less on performing and more upon teaching and writing music for others to play. A virtuoso, he wrote not for other virtuosos but for the people he was teaching or amateurs, and today it is felt by some musicians that his works "made no great technical demands".
