About
C.P.E. Bach composed more than thirty works for the flute. These eleven authentic sonatas for flute and basso continuo are mentioned in the catalogue of CPE Bach’s Estate (Hamburg 1790), five of which were written in Berlin between 1739 and 1746.
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
German composer, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, (1714-1788, Hamburg) was the second surviving son of Johann Sebastian Bach and the leading composer of the early Classical period. C.P.E. Bach also had an enviable reputation as a performer and teacher.
He composed a vast number of works including concerti, symphonies, chamber music, songs, religious music and organ works amongst others.
In 1740 he was appointed harpsichordist to Frederick II of Prussia. Frederick was an accomplished flautist and would regularly perform flute concerti with the court orchestra.
