Par STRANZ ULRICH. For many years the manuscript of 'Déjà vu' slumbered in the music library of oboist Hansjörg Schellenberger (former solo oboist of the Berlin Philharmonic) before it was rediscovered last year. Ulrich Stranz composed this solo work for Oboe d'amore, the alto instrument in the oboe family, at the end of his student years in 1974 as the nucleus of his later identically named concert piece (BA06292-72). The dedicatee Hansjörg Schellenberger refers to it as a 'masterwork' and 'an important enrichment of the repertoire of oboists'. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Répertoire / Hautbois d'Amour

The two oboe concerts in F major (Op. 37 and 52) are among the most artistically important and intellectually graceful works of Krommer (1759 1831). The proffered Opus 52 is written in the classic three-movement concerto form and builds on the musical diction of Haydn and Mozart. The concerto was revised by Frantisek Suchý who comments on the edition’s relation to its sources in the Editor’s Notes. The detailed Preface is written by Jan Racek. The publication is part of the Musica Antiqua Bohemica series.
