The sonatas performed on this disc were written much later for violin but, using that earlier precedent, have been transcribed for fl ute by one of the world's greatest exponents of the instrument, Patrick Gallois.

When he was eight years old Mozart wrote a series of duo sonatas sanctioned for violin or fl ute and keyboard. Written in London, they were dedicated to Queen Charlotte. The sonatas performed on this disc were written much later for violin but, using that earlier precedent, have been transcribed for flute by one of the world's greatest exponents of the instrument, Patrick Gallois. Memorably tuneful, they represent different stages of Mozart's development and are beautifully suited to their new guise.
