Flute and organ works of Mozart, recorded by Czech virtuoso Vokalkova with American organist Kathleen Scheide playing the gentle and historic organ at St. Wenceslas, Prague.
As ensemble Due Solisti, Vokalkova and Scheide have toured the Czech Republic, Germany, and the United States. Vokalkova teaches at the Prague Conservatory; Scheide at Henderson State University. Each maintains an active solo career, with additional recodings on the HLM, OHS and Raven labels.
There is some irony attached to playing works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791) on flute and organ. Mozart created a number of sublime masterpieces for the flute, an instrument he loathed. The organ, which he seems to have viewed as a vehicle for improvisation, remained always his favorite instrumnet, yet he left no significant compositions for it. Most of the pieces presented in this recording have been arranged by Dr. Scheide. Cognoscenti will find these transcriptions logical as well as beautiful.
