Symphonies No. 35 & 36 & 41 - Arranged for Flute

Hummel, conductor, composer and pianist, whose death ended the great Viennese lineage of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, produced a series of inspired arrangements of Mozarts symphonies between 182324. As a child of eight he had lodged and studied with Mozart and these arrangements demonstrate a profound understanding of his teachers art. He refused to vary a single harmony but did make some changes to accommodate contemporary early Romantic taste, and to bring out intensity of orchestral colour as well as offering opportunities for pianistic virtuosity. Symphonies Nos. 3840 can be heard on Naxos 8.572841.
