The Guitare d'amour in Romanticism. Franz Schubert's so-called InchArpeggione SonataInch owes it's peculiar name to a long-forgotten string instrument that was usually referred to in Vienna in the 1820s as the Inchbowed guitarInch or Inchguitar-violoncelloInch. It was an invention of the Viennese instrument maker Georg Stauffer and was quite popular for about a decade. After that, it disappeared into the annals of history. If Schubert had not dedicated his famous sonata to the instrument, the arpeggione would have been long forgotten. But this way, the memory of the instrument was kept alive. To complement the great InchArpeggione SonataInch, soloist Lorenz Duftschmid has recorded five Schubert songs in instrumental versions (the poems in question are recited before the instrumental version in each case) as well as three nocturnes by an almost forgotten Romantic from the Rhineland Friedrich Burgmüller. His InchTrois NocturnesInch, available in various versions, sound most beautiful and full of emotion on arpeggione and guitar, the two instruments so closely related. Album Tracks 4.
