Productomschrijving
Also from Steglein, and produced to the same high standard, are the six quartets for flute, violin, viola and basso continuo by Quantz. The editor, Mary Oleskiewicz, has written in EM, xxxi (2003), pp. 484-505, about the recovery of the manuscript of this hitherto unknown opus from Kiev, where it had been since World War II. Probably composed in Dresden in the 1720s, after Quantz's study trip to Rome, the quartets are written in an elegant Italianate contrapuntal style, not at all like the galant music he was to write later, and not, perhaps, showing any great individuality. But the composers one is reminded ofùTelemann, Vivaldi in places, and sometimes the Bach of the Brandenburg Concertosùgive an idea of the quality of the music, which is, moreover, composed with a Telemann-like expertise, giving each instrument opportunities to shine while integrating it beautifully into an overall structure. The First Quartet has something of the character of a miniature flute concerto; the last one is outstanding, too, with its brilliant Bach-like Allegro, eloquent Grave, and resourceful, energetic, fugal finale. All the music is grateful to play, and I can imagine it being welcomed not only by flutists and violinists, but especially by viola players, whose solo repertory from this period is so meagre.
