LEOPOLD HOFMANN (1738-1793): Flute Concertos in D (Badley D5), G (G1), A (A1) and G (G4) (World Premiere Recordings).

Description: Hofmann’s radiant flute concertos follow the conventions of the day with superlative elegance and a deceptive facility. The solo writing has a lightness, grace and agility perfectly suited to the instrument’s strengths, particularly in the lovely and often rhapsodic slow movements. Uwe Grodd (flute), Czech Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra Pardubice; Michael Halász.
