Johann Joachim Quantz: Concerto in G minor for Flute, Strings and B.C, QV 5:196 | 1727-41

Concerto in G minor, QV 5:196, Frank Theuns, Transverse flute
00:00 I. Allegro di molto ma con brio
06:11 II. Larghetto
12:43 III. Presto
A large proportion of the compositional output of Johann Joachim Quantz has been preserved up to the present day, in particular the works written for the crown prince and subsequent King Frederick II. The approximately 291 surviving flute concertos from the most substantial group of works alongside vocal music, several orchestral works, trio and quartet sonatas and around 184 sonatas for transverse flute and basso continuo (this video). It is probable that some of these works were composed during the Dresden period and were subsequently incorporated into repertoire in Berlin, but the majority of the concertos were created specifically for Frederick II and took the stylistic preferences of the royal flute pupil into consideration. These works show that Quantz was able to blend the wide palette of impressions gained from his teachers and his extensive travels to Italy, France and England to form a highly individual style.
