Sonate n. 2 pour flûte, alto & harpe : Transcription pour flûte, hautbois ou cor anglais, clarinette, cor en fa et basson de G. Pretto
This volume enriches the wind quintet repertoire with a masterpiece of the most refined chamber music literature, composed in a valuable historical period which did not give birth to novel pieces of relevant importance for this kind of ensemble. The present version, which generates from the study and expertise of a musician who devoted more than twenty years of his artistic career to the wind quintet, yearns to be a meta-arrangement. Indeed, the musical material is expressed in a language so profound and so universal that it can be played by instruments different from the original ones without losing any of its significance.
