Description
Eighteenth-century Neapolitan instrumental music holds a wealth of treasures. The manuscripts of these largely unknown pieces were lying in libraries, just waiting to be rediscovered and performed after centuries of oblivion. Renata Cataldi, flautist and scholar of 18th-century flute repertoire, presents a beautiful programme of sonatas for flute and basso continuo in world première recordings; she herself rediscovered and published the works in a modern edition. Composed by musicians who lived and worked in Naples in the 1700s, these works reveal the very high standards achieved by both the city’s music school, and the instrumental genre itself.
