Bachs, Benda And Brönnimann: Music For Flute
) | Label: Catalog: TOCN0022 Format: COMPACT DISC Halsdorf, Jean; Pyramide Ensemble; Brönnimann, Markus; Berben, LeonFour of the composers on this recording met in real life – in Potsdam, in spring 1747. In this album they are reunited, joined by the flautist-composer who brings their encounter to life once more, the Swiss-born Markus Brönnimann. The stylistic contrasts between works three centuries apart serve to accentuate their strengths, the formal elegance of the earlier pieces underlining the expressive liberty of the recent ones. Brönnimann combines the two worlds with his luminous arrangement of one of the best-known of all classical compositions: Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor.  Price: $29.98 |
