The music of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach unlike that of his famous father Johann Sebastian or that of the master he influenced Haydn did not define an era so much as reveal a deeply personal response to the musical conventions of his time. The three movements of this Sonata in A Minor for unaccompanied flute - the only one he wrote for 'flute alone' - may be played either in the order written or in the order II-I-III for a more balanced work.

The Baroque flautist and composer Quantz not only wrote at least 20 Flute concertos but he was also responsible for many innovations in Flute design including the addition of keys to improve intonation. This edition contains apreface by Frances Blaisdell who edited the piece and dedicated it to George Barrere her own teacher who realised the cadenzas for this work.

Premiered by Donald Peck principal flautist of the Chicago Symphony with Sir Georg Solti conducting the orchestra on April 18 1985. This piece encompasses many moods and textures in its four movements from martial attitudesthrough impressionist calm to metrically irregular blue-note harmonies.

Solo Flute-A two-minute fanfare composed in 2008. Euterpe in Greek and Roman mythology was the muse of Flute playing and lyric poetry.

Bach’s Arioso was arranged in many different forms by the composer. First written as a Violin or Oboe Concerto in G minor now lost it was then transposed and re-used as the Sinfonia to the Cantata BWV 156 in F major first performed in 1729. A much embellished version was then used as the middle movement of his Harpsichord Concerto in F minor BWV 1056 published in 1738. It has been arranged here for Flute with Piano accompaniment by George Barrère. J. S. Bach (1685-1750) was a German Baroque composer who is revered for the originality and skill of his contrapuntal and harmonic techniques. He spent most of his life working as an organist andchoirmaster but was also employed as a composer a many different Royal Courts.
