Description
Luigi Boccherini's contemporaries ranked him with Joseph Haydn, but during later times the high esteem enjoyed by his music faded - when everything of Italian origin that was not an opera was generally dismissed. The young musicians of Scala köln believe that it is high time to re-open Boccherini's case and are now presenting the results of their new investigation: a delightful program demonstrating that Boccherini's treasure trove holds more in store than just his famous Minuet.
Featuring the Quintetto in C major, Trio Secondo in G major, Quintetto Secondo in F major, Quintetto Quinto in E flat major and the Serenade in D major, the musicians of Scala köln, led by the violinist Christoph Mayer and the oboist Monika Nielen, bring this music to the stage in fresh new interpretations that are historically informed and feature period instruments.
