Georg Philipp Telemann’s 12 Fantasies for Solo Flute were published in Hamburg in 1732–33. The collection is arranged by key, progressing more or less stepwise from A major to G minor, with Telemann deliberately avoiding keys that are impractical on the one-key flute. The young and increasingly celebrated flautist Jasmine Choi has concertized from Korea to Europe to the US and the demand for her as an orchestral soloist is rapidly growing, seeing her collaborating with the world’s most prominent conductors. Winner of numerous competitions, Ms. Choi has been designated a “Rising Star” by both Carnegie Hall and Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center. The press in her native Korea has called her “the Goddess of the Flute”. This is the Austrian-based Ms. Choi’s fifth official recording.
