Gatti, a contemporary companion of Leopold and W. A. Mozart, composed this Concertone, that is published here for the first time, in 1769 for the opening of the Teatro Bibiena in Mantua, where the young Mozart, only five weeks later, gave his second, well-received concert in Italy. Not only the charming solos (apart from the two violins there is also a cello and an oboe) remind us of Mozart's composition of the same name that was composed four years later (KV190). Score and parts available separately - see item CA.9710300.

Bach's harpsichord concerti, extremely popular among pianists, are presumably reworkings of pieces originally written for the violin. Bach, however, succeeded in transferring the diverse idiosyncrasies of violin technique to the keyboard with such ingenuity that most of today's pianists also include these concerti in their standard repertoire. The first concerto in D minor is perhaps the most popular - not least because of its jaunty outer movements and the eminently forceful solo part. Now, as a prelude to a series of all of Bach's harpsichord concerti, G. Henle Publishers presents a piano reduction and study edition (score) of the D-minor concerto. None other than András Schiff, the outstanding Bach expert, has provided fingering suggestions.

Commissioned by a consortium of saxophonists led by Christopher Creviston, Bolcom's “celebratory” Concerto has become an instant staple of the repertory. In three movements entitled “Lively, with humor,” “Serenade,” and “Shimmy,” Bolcom explores blues and jazz like never before, utilizing the band instrumentation to punctuate various popular styles. The piano reduction is eminently playable as a recital piece.

Among Vivaldi's many flute and recorder concertos, two, both for transverse flute, were known until a few years ago only in incomplete form: RV 431 and 432. Both are written in the comfortable and expressive key of E minor, are transmitted in autograph manuscripts and lack their second movement (RV 432 also lacks its third movement). The seemingly enigmatic instruction Grave sopra il libro replacing the second movement has given rise to the most fanciful hypotheses. The discovery in Edinburgh, in 2010, of a concerto for transverse flute in D minor entitled Il gran Mogol suddenly shed light on the situation: this was an earlier version of RV 431, now complete with its middle movement, a Larghetto that is very possibly identical with the one missing in RV 431. This Gran Mogol, which belonged to Robert Kerr, a Scottish nobleman and amateur flautist, was already known by name to scholars on account of its listing in an eighteenth-century catalogue as part of a set of Vivaldi concertos bearing geographical titles: more recently, there has come to light a letter written by Vivaldi three months before his death in which the composer describes this setin detail. It is very likely that RV 431 and RV 432 belonged to this group of works, the last known collection of its kind in Vivaldis oeuvre. This critical edition places these closely related works side by side for the first time, placing them in their historical context and making them performable through its reconstruction of some lost parts.

Gemini Concerto was commissioned by and written for Ryukoku University (Japan), André Henry and Shoichiro Hokazono. Set in three movements, the concerto aims to explore the close relationship, as solo instruments, between the trumpet and euphonium, exploiting the many common factors between the two as well as the subtly different characteristics they possess in terms of both lyrical and rhythmic playing. The first movement is a bustling toccata and the second movement is lyrical and improvisatory in nature. A fantastic piece and a great addition to the repertoire!Gemini Concerto werd in opdracht gegeven door en geschreven voor de Ryukoku University (Japan), André Henry en Shoichiro Hokazono. Dit driedelige concert verkent de nauwe relatie tussen de trompet en de euphonium, beide als solo-instrument, waarbij gebruik wordt gemaakt van de vele gemeenschappelijke kenmerken, evenals de subtiele verschillen die er zijn in zowel het lyrische als het ritmische spel. Het eerste deel is een bruisende toccata, en deel twee is lyrisch en improvisatorisch van karakter. Een fantastisch werk en een geweldige bijdrage aan het repertoire!Das Gemini Concerto wurde von der Ryukoku University (Japan) in Auftrag gegeben und für André Henry und Shoichiro Hokazono geschrieben.
