Sonates de Bohème pour violon
Volume I
Les noms des compositeurs ici réunis représentent la crème de la crème des musiciens et compositeurs de Bohème au XVIIIe et au début du XIXe siècle. Parmi eux, on mentionnera F. Benda, J. Stamitz, J.L. Dussek et J.B. Vanhal, compositeurs autrefois célèbres dans toute l’Europe, et actifs pour la plupart au sein de prestigieuses cours étrangères. Bien que la sonate pour violon fût un genre dans lequel ils excellaient, la musique de ces compositeurs est aujourd’hui malheureusement largement éclipsée par celle de Haydn, Mozart et Beethoven. Notre collection en deux volumes désire mettre quelques-uns de ces trésors entre les mains de violonistes curieux (mais aussi déjà très expérimentés).
