Jean-Louis Beaumadier's "Récital sur les flûtes" is a captivating exploration of the flute's versatility and expressiveness, released on January 1, 1993, under the Calliope label. This album spans a little over an hour, offering a rich tapestry of compositions that showcase Beaumadier's mastery of the instrument.
The album opens with a selection of 12 Fantasias for Flute Without Bass by Georg Philipp Telemann, demonstrating Beaumadier's technical prowess and musical sensitivity. The pieces range from lively and spirited to slow and contemplative, providing a diverse palette of emotions and styles.
Beaumadier's interpretation of Johann Sebastian Bach's Partita in A Minor, BWV 1013, is a standout feature. The suite's four movements—Allemande, Corrente, Sarabande, and Bourrée anglaise—are performed with a delicate touch and a deep understanding of Baroque music's intricacies.
The album also includes works by other notable composers such as Niccolò Paganini, whose 24 Caprices for Solo Violin, Op. 1: No. 24 is brilliantly adapted for the flute. Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's Flute Sonata in A Minor, Wq. 132, is another highlight, showcasing Beaumadier's ability to convey both the lyrical and virtuosic aspects of the piece.
Debussy's "Syrinx" and "Incantation" add a touch of French impressionism to the collection, while "Carnaval de Venise, Op. 14" by Francesco Saverio Geminiani brings the album to a thrilling close. Throughout the album, Beaumadier's playing is characterized by its clarity, precision, and expressive depth, making "Récital sur les flûtes" a memorable and enriching listening experience.
