JOHANN BAPTIST VANHAL (1739-1813): Flute Quartets in B Flat, G and C, Op. 7, Nos. 2, 3 and 6

Description: Less virtuosic for the flute than Hofmann's flute quartets, these pieces from 1771 pay more attention to development of thematic material, moving them closer to the genre of the symphony than of chamber music but fitting comfortably in the area of the latter. Uwe Grodd (flute), Janaki String Trio.
