Carmignola / Kirchhof - Music for Flute - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

As a legacy of the Lully tradition was Michel Pignolet de Montéclair (1667-1737) one of the brilliant musicians of the period before Rameau. His oeuvre is preserved, although narrow, but high quality. In his few instrumental works, Montéclair preferred the contemporary fashion instrument transverse flute, which he devoted several collections. The two master flutist Frank Theuns and Marc Hantai underline the charming lightness of this music that combines the ease of Regence in notes. Album Tracks 1. 1. Prã©Lude Lentement 2. 2.

Rampal / Paris Orch Ens / Wallez - Flute [COMPACT DISCS] date 05/07/2009

For her recital debut the in-demand concerto soloist Katherine Bryan performs a selection of twentieth-century concertos, including the rarely recorded Liebermann Concerto for Flute and Orchestra. The Liebermann concerto has rarely been recorded in it's entirety. Commissioned and originally performed by James Galway, the concerto is considered one of the most substantial and significant additions to the flute repertoire in recent years. Considered 'a flautist's dream composer' (BBC Music Magazine) Liebermann's writing is full of optimistic, audience-friendly and tuneful melodies with rapid-fire fingering passages that showcase the technical prowess of the soloist. Katherine stated 'I feel that Lowell Liebermann's concerto encompasses all the emotions and colours of which the flute is so brilliantly capable and it is for me, quite simply a twentieth-century virtuoso masterpiece, and thrilling to play.' The inclusion of works by Hu¨e, Nielsen and Poulenc in the programme shows the particular diversity of the flute, demonstrating the variety of repertoire composed for the instrument during the twentieth century.
