Bois
mortier - Premier Balet
de Village - Joseph
Boismortier (1689-1755)
was unusual for his time
in that he had no patron,
and worked independantly.
Much of his music is for
the flute, with his Six
Sonatas Op. 91 being most
performed now. This is
the first of four
'Balets', published in
1734. In two sections,
the first in simple time
and the second in
compound time. Elegant
and carefree music. Haydn
- Piano Trio in G minor
Hob.XV:19 - 2nd movement
- This tiny movement
crams in much of Haydn's
creative style. Cheeky
chromaticism, canonic
entries, elegantly
balanced phrases and good
humour prevail, with a
virtuosic section for the
first flute in the
middle. Delibes - Les
Trois Oiseaux - A French
composer known mostly for
vocal works, this piece
was originally a song for
two sopranos and piano.
The rippling semiquavers
suggest the fluttering
wings of the birds in the
title. Phillipe Gaubert -
Divertissement Grec -
Originally for two flutes
and harp, this sways
seductively ebbing and
flowing like the waves on
a Mediterranean beach.
Josef Suk –
Bagatela - Joseph Suk was
a Czech composer and
violinist. He studied
under Dvorak, whose
daughter he married. His
only composition in
regular performance now
is his Serenade for
Strings Op. 6, but he
wrote a large amount of
music in all genres. This
is a charmingly relaxed
piece, displaying some of
his Czech influences.
