Canti con flauto II: Sechs Lieder des 19. Jahrhunderts [Songs with Flute II: Six Songs of the 19th Century]

Various

The second volume in the series Canti con flauto features six songs from the 19th century for high voice, flute and piano in a new critical edition. The pieces, some of which are virtuosic, offer an impressive insight into the varied repertoire for this scoring. The selection includes works with German, French, and English texts. Three of the songs originally contained two languages. In the works by Ch. G. Belcke, A. Terschak, H. R. Bishop, and S. Laville the flute imitates bird song. The compositions by J. H. Alts and A. M. Panseron are also based on contemporary texts about nature and love.

Together with Canti con flauto I, this volume enables performers to rediscover this highly effective, but unjustly forgotten repertoire.
