With “Beethoven for Flute and Piano – Part II”, audite continues it’s CD series exploring the composer’s contributions to this instrumentation. While the first release, “But in my style!”, focused on the late works, this new double album turns to the composer’s early Viennese period.Here, the flute does not appear merely as an ad libitum instrument, but takes centre stage as the tonal focus of both original compositions and arrangements. The spectrum ranges from a version revised and authorised by Beethoven himself to adaptations by Friedrich Hermann. In this way, the selection also offers a glimpse into the historical reception of his music. Together with the first volume, it presents a richly varied panorama of Beethoven’s oeuvre for flute and piano.
