Certainly, in the field of opera one of the best known composer rivalries has to be between Mozart and Salieri. Ironically, Mozart's son, Franz Xaver Mozart had Salieri as one of his teachers. In the early 19th Century there must certainly have been some rivalry between pianist composers such as Ignaz Moschelles and John Field.

Well, I seem to be the only one to see any charm in those works.
What about other orchestral works by C-T, such as the violin concerto and the Variations on an African Air?

Was Cherubini underappreciated (perhaps "unsung") at the time making him no threat to Beethoven's supremacy?

I am not familiar with those works. I have a disc of Czerny's 3 sonatas for piano 4 hands, which I find disappointingly dull, and therefore I have not been encouraged to explore him further.
