Hoffmeister, FA
International Music Company presents Franz Anton Hoffmeister's 'Concerto in G major' for flute and piano edited by Jean-Pierre Rampal.
'Hoffmeister was one of the seemingly countless, truly prolific composers of the eighteenth century, and the 25 solo Flute Concertos - there are three more double concertos involving the flute - are among an astounding sixty-odd he wrote for various instruments. Though Hoffmeister's music was widely admired in his lifetime, he himself paid as much attention to his music publishing business as to composition, and wrote with one eye on the hobbyist market. The Concertos are thus quite conventional: from the straightforward key choice and archetypal fast-slow-fast structure to their even-paced grace and thoroughgoing tunefulness, they reflect their creator's canny craftsmanship rather than the hand of artistic genius. The slow movements in particular are chocolaty; anyone who listens to Mozart or Haydn primarily for elegant melodies and rhythmic certainties will find Hoffmeister tasty. Others may find him at times a little too sweet.'
