Six Quartetti concertanti

Description

Flute 1, Flute 2, Flute 3, Flute 4 — The 6 concert quartets for 4 flutes presented here are something special in the quartet literature of the 18th century: the entire cycle is linked by programmatic headings. Hereby, the great diversity in harmonization technique, the selection of movements and of musical means on the flute correspond to the different emotional contents of the pieces.
