魯特琴在十七世紀曾經是宮廷樂器之王, 是一個高雅娛樂表演的象徵, 隨後在下一個世紀逐漸的被遺棄. 但是一小羣演奏名家和作曲家拒絕接受這種預知的衰退: 這些音樂家們將其影響力的中心移到維也納, 拜魯赫和德勒斯登的宮廷中, 將優雅加蘭特風格(galant style)的音樂語法與形式改編給魯特琴, 並且理所當然的首度融入管弦樂團中.

 

米格爾.林孔和金蘋果樂團收集了科豪特, 法許和克萊恩克內特(世界首錄)的協奏曲和哈根的三重奏作品(也是首錄)在這張專輯中. 這些卓越的, 富有創意和技藝精湛的作品, 在巴洛克, 狂飆突進運動(Sturm und Drang)和加蘭特風格的十字路口中, 顯露出魯特琴這種樂器豐富的音色和表達力, 但已經處於最後的掙扎中了.

 

After being the king of court instruments in the seventeenth century, a symbol of refined entertainment, the lute was gradually abandoned in the following century. A small group of virtuosos and composers nevertheless refused to accept this predicted decline: these musicians moved the epicentre of its influence to the courts of Vienna, Bayreuth and Dresden, adapting the codes and forms of the galant style to the lute, which for the first time integrated the orchestra in its own right.

 

Miguel Rincon and Il Pomo d'Oro bring together concertos by Kohaut, Fasch and Kleinknecht (world premiere), and a trio by Hagen, also recorded here for the first time. These splendid, inventive and virtuoso works reveal the richness of timbre and expression of an instrument that, at the crossroads of the Baroque, the Sturm und Drang and the galant style, was in its last throes.
