An estonishing document for the developpement of the bassoon and the harp- the german composers. A rare opportunity to listen to this special music and these two instruments together.
Bio / Background
Christoph Schaffrath was born in 1709 in Hohenstein near Dresden.He was one of those capable and indeed important musician and composer whom the music lover, Frederich 2 of
Prussia,gathered around him.In 1740 Schaffrath was transferred to the Berlin Court Orchestra. After the appointment of Carl Phillip Emanuel Bach, he was given the post of harpsichordist and chamber musicaian to Her Royal Highness, the Princess Amalie of Prussia.He was well known for his beautifull and popular compositions. In his chamber music the keyboard instruments play a leading role,as in the Duetto. Rachel Talitman adapted the score for the harp.He died in Berlin in 1763.
Carl Almenräder was born in 1786. He enjoyed a remarkable career as touring bassoon virtuoso, orchestral player,teacher, composer, author, maker and inventor.Almenräder and J.A. Heckel formed in 1831 a new bassoon fabric.Almenräder's bassoon improved the technical capabilities of this instrument (4 octaves).
