About
These instruments enable listeners to become acquainted with two instruments forming a perfect match for this repertoire: on an extremely well-preserved original instrument and on a copy that in its way is tonally just as suitable – after all, even during the time of its composition the music was performed on new instruments. The Ptuj collection shows how fragile and incomplete our knowledge of the musical practice from the epoch between the epochs really is. The transmitted manuscripts, above all the extant concertos by Wagenseil, document the variety of performance options, broad compositional palette, and widespread dissemination of music for keyboard instruments. Our picture of this epoch would be quite different if the manuscripts had been burnt in the local tile oven!
Concertos by Georg Christoph Wagenseil, Casteli, Johann Michael Steinbacher, Johann Adam Scheibl and anonymous.
