Field

Field, John, geb. 1782 in Dublin, Klaviervirtuos, Schüler von Clementi, welcher ihn mit auf seine Kunstreisen durch Frankreich, Deutschland u. Rußland nahm. Als Clementi in Petersburg abreiste, blieb F. dort u. machte mit seinen Concerten ungewöhliches Glück. Seit 1822 lebte er in Moskau, später in London, von wo er über Frankreich u. die Schweiz nach Neapel ging. Hier verfiel er in Folge unmäßigen Lebensgenusses in eine heftige Krankheit, kehrte 1836 nach Moskau zurück u. starb dort 1837; er schr.: Exercices; Variationen auf englische u. russische Volkslieder, worunter: Air du bon roi Henri IV., 16 Nocturnen u. 7 Concerte, 4 Sonaten u. einige kleine Stücke für Pianoforte.
