Jan van Gilse - Trio for Flute, Violin and Viola

[@larbaud]

La richesse de la musique européenne de la première moitié du xxe siècle est infinie. A chaque jour je trouve sur KZbin un nouveau nom et un nouveau trésor. Merci beaucoup !

The sound of flute and strings go togather so well, I frequently buy recordings of chamber music with this combination of instruments. My love for this sound led me to buying a used flute and a copy of flute for dummies but haven't started practicing it yet. I have not heard this before so it will make a good addition to my collection. I agree the flute is somewhat reminiscent of bird like sounds. Soothing and relaxing, there's alot to like here.

+scottbos68 The finale is very virtuosic, but also very uplifting! I really like this kind of sound as well, too bad combinations like this are less often heard in recitals.

Pinky Zukerman's wife was a flute player and they did some records that I don't think we're ever transfered to CD. It would be a worthwhile project if someone were to buy and upload all of them, I know I would listen.

Fantastic playing

The finale is so joyous. Is this particular recording available commercially?

Fantastic, well performed and in tune. I'm not able to play so virtuously the flute, but like to suggest taking a wood-instrument, with more overtones and therefore warmer sound, which was common in the early 20th century, mixing better with the strings - and they should take gut. But the flutist made the best of his modern instrument. Sorry - sincerely Dietrich

PS compared with the other recordings of this trio, for example kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4Ksd6amiNCZotk, viotta plays with perfect sound, intonation, sound, rhythm, and layout! Only in the higher pitch the flute should be softer - but this is extremely difficult. With high respect and congratulation, Dietrich

I agree, I chose this particular recording because the playing is so good! And I also agree with your comment on the flute, but it is a minor point I think.
