Once again the Swiss Artist Consort releases a wonderfully balanced production in their own meritorious GENUIN series: the sixth of the flutist Felix Renggli. Backed by the Chamber Academy Basel, he performs flute concertos by Carl Philipp Emmanuel Bach and François Devienne. We witness the stunning developments in the music of the 18th century–from the offshoots of the late baroque, through the fury of the Sturm und Drang years and up to the radiance of classical era. Competent interpreters help to do justice to music that is rarely played–absolutely worth listening to!
Fanfare
"Renggli´s flute playing is excellent, and when paired with the strings the blend is satisfactory""
