In Gossec we have a big part of european music history, he worked whith Rameau in his youth and was one of those who sent Berlioz to Rome in his old age! He was very important for the development of the classic symphony. This piece is as least as charming as any of J CH Bach and as the simphonie concertante is a french speciality it is odd that so few of those has been recorded, there are also wonderful works of Devienne and Breval just to mention a few. Thanks!
@@mrbigarms No, Gossec's music is much more lush, operatic, not an ounce of strict minimalism as in Bach and always sweet -- more like Mozart but not so manic.
Délicat et raffiné, merci beaucoup
Absolument charmant, merci

Stylistically very similar to JC Bach's better known works.
I can imagine young Wolfy under his bedcovers listening to this on his clandestine transistor radio.

Lovely music. It is a pity that nowadays not much of his music is performed.....
Pièce d'un compositeur largement méconnu (qui fut pourtant le maillon entre Rameau et Berlioz) dans le style galant de l'époque.
Un grande compositore poco conosciuto e poco frequentato dalle orchestre.
thank you!!!
Wunderschön, superbe, Danke, Merci!!
Magnifique
et tellement sous-coté
I would love to know about the painting. Who was the artist, and where is this scene? Thank you for the lovely music!
🙂💙
Such a charming piece. Who are the soloists and orchestra?
