Having traversed the spectacular and princely court-music of Barock Salzburg, the trumpeter Otto Sauter turns to Vienna with another two-disc survey of rare trumpet concertos and festive serenatas. Fux and Schmelzer will be familiar names to lovers of the music of Bach’s forebears, but who has heard the bright and charming compositions of Georg Reutter (father and son), or of Franz Querfurth? These composers tended to look more towards Italy for inspiration than the Bohemian influence to be heard in Salzburg-based composers of the time, and their works are accordingly no less virtuosic and perhaps even more extrovert.
Whilst playing and teaching the trumpet the world over, Otto Sauter is also a horse-breeder of distinction: his form in this musical genre can lead listeners to expect performances of rare pedigree.
