A wonderful selection of the best flute concertos from the 18th and 19th centuries, this video showcases 7 composers who championed the flute, each in their own way, with refined and idiomatic music for the instrument. Vivaldi was active during the 1720s, an era of transition from the end-blown recorder to the more powerful and easily tuned side-blown transverse flute common today. From later in the 18th century we have the inventive and idiomatic flute music of Mozart. Joining Büchner in the 19th century is Swiss-born Du Puy who was active in Scandinavia. Soloists of international calibre and renown perform with equally noteworthy ensembles in recordings spanning four decades: Ginevra Petrucci's renditions of Du Puy and Büchner with Milan's acclaimed Pomeriggi Musicali to timeless interpretations from Johannes Walter and the Staatskapelle Dresden (Mozart). Authentic performance is also represented in this bundle, with Mario Folena joining Vivaldi specialists Federico Guglielmo and L'Arte dell'Arco. Iceland's Nordic Affect period ensemble features Georgia Browne in flute music by Abel, who wrote his chamber works for his pioneering London subscription concerts.
