Customer Reviews:

PONDERING PLATTI.......2001-10-31

Giovanni Benedetto Platti (1697-1763), rather than following the stylistic musical trends of his time, instead, like very few others, protracted a "bridge" between the Baroque and Classical eras and, in many instances, especially obvious in these works, forayed adventurously into a sort of quasi-Romanticism. The six delightful Op. 3 Sonatas for Flute, Cello and Harpsichord--- all four movements, with the exception of No. 5, which is only three--- are unacademic, fresh, mellow, often playful, singing works. Allegros are radiant, never coarse; sprightly, but always with a subtle hint of nostalgia. Slow movements, particularly fetching, plunge far deeper than one might suppose for this musical period, often "touching" us in the most spontaneous ways. A composer of exquisite taste and melody, Platti, whose Op. 3 was written when he was forty-six years old, is yet another artist who seems unjustly doomed to obscurity; there is hope, though, when an enterprising ensemble such as this--- Bernhard Bohm (Transverse Flute), Rainer Zipperling (Cello) and Glen Wilson (Harpsichord)--- warm and intimate as anyone could want---has the moxie to unearth such insistent treasures. Rarely have flute sonatas been played or recorded so lovingly, or convincingly.
