FLUTE CONCERTOS

Karl Kaiser (flute & dir.), La Stagione Frankfurt

Ignaz Holzbauer was a member of the Mannheim school whose music has been likened to that of Mozart. CPO is delighted to add to the catalogue a disc of the Viennese composer’s concertos.

The beautiful tone and virtuosic nature of Holzbauer’s flute concertos are interpreted here by Karl Kaiser and La Stagione Frankfurt.

Holzbauer:
 Flute Concerto in A major
 Flute Concerto in D major (Allegro molto - Largo non troppo - Allegro non troppo)
 Flute Concerto in D major (Vivace - Andantini e grazioso assai - Allegro con molto spirito)
 Flute Concerto in E minor
