Consortium Classicum, Gernot Schmalfuss - Joseph Haydn/Mozart: Oboe Quartets
Catalogue No: MDG3010314
Barcode: 760623031422
Franz Joseph Rosinack was the first oboist of the F�rstenberg Orchestra arranged the masterpieces of his time for reuse in his brilliant solo appearances. A certain chutzpah on his part is seen in the fact that he even dared to take on Joseph Haydn's string quartets - the result makes for highly rewarding listening.Gernot Schmalfu� and the Consortium Classicum present two of Rosinack's oboe quartets in fascinating juxtaposition with Mozart's original masterpiece for the same instrumentation on the re-release of a production sold out for many years.The musicians of the Consortium Classicum have captured the carefree tone making for a successful serenade like hardly any other ensemble. The broad cantilenas are in the best company with Gernot Schmalfu�, and this Consortium solo member of many years presents top-class chamber wind culture supported by three string instrumentalists. This is fine entertainment on the highest level!
