The second of eleven sons of Johann Sebastian Bach and Maria Barbara Bach, C.P.E. Bach was born in Weimar on 8th March 1714. He was one of the founders of the Classical style, composing in the Rococo and Classical periods.
Through the latter half of the eighteenth century, his reputation was very high. This was mainly because of his clavier sonatas, which marked an important development in the history of musical form. Lucid in style, delicate and tender in expression, they are even more notable for the freedom and variety of their structural design; they break away altogether from the exact formal antithesis which, with the composers of the Italian school, had hardened into convention, and substitute the wider and more flexible outline which the great Viennese masters showed to be capable of almost infinite development.

Hugh Rance
Wonderful playing, thank you -and the orchestra was really beginning to warm up in the last movement!

Oh LORD! Amazing interpretation of the whole ensemble. I just love to ask Mr. Jacot , what kind of flute is the one he is playing? thanks..
Sébastian Jacot
Hello! The flute i play here is a cocus wooden Haynes made in 1999 by Haynes on Jacques Zoon's demand. It is based on Jacques's flute also made of cocus wood but by a Paris flute maker in 1900 yes 1900. There are only 3 flutes like this one..

The King must have been very excited when he saw the score for the first time! And even more excited after the first rehearsal!

Great vitality and phrasing, articulation and music- bravo! Just curious- was it your choice of tempo or were you surprised when they started?!

Speaking about the tempo of this movement in a masterclass, Rampal said, "It must be FRIGHTENING!" You did it! I admire your playing very much, and I hope to hear and meet you in person at an NFA convention some day.

@Sébastian Jacot haha! Well, luckily you have very nice articulation! Good job! Its' one of my favourite flute concerti!
Sébastian Jacot
Haha i wasn't surprised by the tempo itself since we had just rehearsed it once in a small room next door where the accoustic was much drier and where this tempo worked perfectly.. in this hall though its another story!
When they started i thought it was all gonna sound like a big slurred vomitando..:)
