The music of the second half of the 18th century has gained a lasting popularity with audiences. It is transparent, symmetrical, and does not annoy the listener with incomprehensible depth of thought or overly exalted expression.
Carl Stamitz (1745-1801), the son of the famous Jan Vaclav Stamic, pleasantly surprises both with his imagination and with his refined instrumental textures. Gabriela Demeterova, one of the best string players of her era makes the most of her instrumental skills in this recording of four of the composer's violin and viola concertos. Gabriela Demeterova, also a brilliant violist, takes advantage of multitrack recording techniques in the sinfonia concertante. This lends a unity of interpretation and style to the recording. Gabriela Demeterova's virtuosity shines forth in Stamitz.
