This disc presents a programme of Concerti by the brothers Johann Gottlieb and Carl Heinrich Graun. Unfortunately the brief attributions ‘del Sig re Graun’ or simply ‘di Graun’ on the manuscripts mean the Concerti cannot always be assigned with certainty to one or the other. Nevertheless these Concerti, performed by Cappella Academica Frankfurt, are full of colour and contain all the stylistic idioms of the transitional period between the Baroque and Classical periods.
