Foremost among Swedish Baroque composers, Johan Helmich Roman travelled to England (1716-21) then to France, Italy, Austria and Germany (1735-37), gaining valuable firsthand knowledge of European music.
At home in Stockholm he conducted the court orchestra, introduced Handel’s music, and was active in developing public concert life.
His rich output includes these twelve charming and highly accomplished Flute Sonatas, the first such published in Sweden, whose galant character combines the baroque and emerging pre-classical styles.
Classical.net recently praised Verena Fischer’s “energetic playing…characterized by clarity and clear-eyed objectivity.”
