Flötensonate mit konzertierendem Cembalo-Johann Joachim Quantz was born in Oberscheden near Hanover on 30th January 1697 and died on 12th July 1773 the highly esteemed court composer and chamber musician to King Frededck II of Prussia. His life's work was based on the fute. He taught the fute which was to be become the fashionable instrument of the time to the young Crown Prince later King of Prussia. The present sonata is based on a manuscript in the Lower Saxony State and University Libraty at Göttingen. It deserves prominence amongst the more than 100 fute compositions by QUANTZ not least on account of its instrumentation of flute with accompanying cembalo which places it in efectively pleasant contrast tothe bulk of QUANTZ's fute sonatas with thorough-bass accompaniment.

Konzert für Flöte Streicher und Basso continuo-From among the nearly 300 flute concertos by Johann Joachim Quantz the flute teacher of King Frederick the Great the G-major work QV 5:174 has been enjoying a very special popularity ever since its rediscovery by the Dresden flautist Moritz F?rstenau in the late 19th century. The principal source for the present Urtext edition is the set of parts of the first performance which took place in Berlin's Charlottenburg Palace in 1745. This source assumes a unique significance due to the many entries and emendations in the hand of the composer.

American composer-bassist Armand Russell has created a wealth of music for double bass over the past fifty years and more recently has arranged a tasteful number of works for the instrument. This four movement sonata (Adagio Allegro Largo Presto) by Johann Joachim Quantz (1697-1773) offers a new and accessible transcription for the good intermediate bassist who is confident in low thumb position. Only available in orchestral tuning there are musical and technical challenges in equal measure and much to enjoy for performers and audiences alike. Sonata in G major is also available in two editions for double bass (or cello) trio andstring orchestra. The accompaniment is playable by piano or harpsichord and the limited range of dynamics allows each performer freedom to create their own unique performance and interpretation. 

Johann Joachim Quantz was born in Germany in 1697 and went on to become a flautist composer writer on music and flute maker. His music embraced the late Baroque / early Classical style and he wrote over 300 concertos for flute of which the Concerto in G remains the most popular today.

Neben Telemanns Duetten bleiben die Quantzens Duette 'zur Erlernung der Musik die bequemsten und nützlichsten Stücke'. Unverzichtbar fürs Spiel auf wechselnden Instrumenten.

Benda gilt daneben auch als Mitbegründer einer eigenständigennorddeutschen Violinschule. [...] Bendas kompositorisches Schaffen ist fastausschließlich auf die Instrumentalmusik, genauer gesagt, die Violinmusikkonzentriert. Von seinen Kompositionen sind etwa 15 Sinfonien, etwa 20Solo-Konzerte (für Violine oder Flöte), mehr als 150 generalbassbegleiteteSolo-Sonaten (für Violine oder Flöte, darunter auch eine für Bratsche ),einige Violinduette und Triosonaten, etwa 100 Capricen für Violine allein undeinige Lieder erhalten, die hauptsächlich in Abschriften, aber auch in einerüberschaubaren Anzahl zeitgenössischer Drucke Verbreitung fanden.Bei der hier erstmals veröffentlichten Fassung für Bratsche, Streicher undBasso continuo in C-Dur handelt es sich um eine zeitgenössische Bearbeitungeines wohl ursprünglich für Violine oder Flöte entstandenen Solo-Konzerts vonFranz Benda, LeeB 2.11, das im Breitkopf-Katalog dreimal erscheint und wohlvor 1763 komponiert wurde. [...]Diese zeitgenössische Bearbeitung fernab von Berlin und Potsdam noch dazumit separaten Verzierungen und Kadenzen für den ersten und zweiten Satz, dieeiner süddeutsch-österreichischen Aufführungstradition entspringen in einemniederösterreichischen Umfeld in Melk zu lokalisieren, ist für dasBratschenrepertoire des 18. Jahrhunderts einzigartig. / Ensemble à cordes / Grahl & Niklas
