12 Fantasias for Flute without Bass

Twelve Fantasias for Flute without Bass TWV 40:1-12-The Fantasias For Flute Without Bass address themselves less to the virtuoso than to the amateur flutist who will find everything he wishes in these pieces. Although Telemann himself may have lost track of his works the many flutists who have perfected their technique and musical interpretation with the help of these lovely Fantasias will never forget them. - Urtext of the Telemann Edition.

Arranged for Flute (TWV 40: 26-37). Par TELEMANN GEORG PHILIPP. Georg Philipp Telemann composed thirty-six fantasias for solo instrument: twelve each for traverse flute, violin, and viola da gamba. While those for flute and violin belong to Telemann?s most popular works today, the fantasias for viola da gamba were unknown throughout much of recent history until a copy of these fantasias was rediscovered in 2015. For this edition, flautist Leona Rötzsch arranged the viola da gamba fantasias for solo flute, thereby complementing Telemann?s flute fantasias with another set of twelve. Carefully retaining Telemann?s tonal language, these viol works were made accessible for the flute by use of transpositions, diminutions, and broken chords. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière
