Description

Of the many trio sonatas written during the 150-year history of this genre the set composed by Jan Dismas Zelenka is certainly among the most striking and unusual. Extreme both in their dimensions and their demands on performer, they unite sophisticated formal designs with exhilarating virtuosity.

The soprano lines can be played with two oboes or two violins or one of each. Additionally a cello may substitute for the bassoon.
