Beautiful, gracious music in wonderful performances

"I have to be honest, I am not a big fan of the flute. I LOVE Telemann, but I have never enjoyed the flute as much as I enjoy the recorder, oboe, even clarinet or bassoon. I bought this set of discs because of the music and because I think MDG are currently the most adventurous and significant of today's classical record companies. The set also made great claims for the flute player and the particular instrument he plays. They were right: I was wrong. This is a wonderful recording which has given me hours of great pleasure. Telemann is at his most graceful and the soloist is gentle and beguiling on the ear. His colleagues are equally outstanding, and I include here the technical staff who set down the tracks. I am so glad I made this purchase. Highly recommended."
