Rachel Brown took on a daunting task when she undertook to explore the three hundred or so flute sonatas written for Frederick, King of Prussia by Johann Quantz which has so far resulted in two volumes of six sonatas each. Each volume comes within a container which consists of two copies of the flute part combined with the basso continuo (cello) part, the keyboard part (the basso continuo realized) and facsimiles of the sonatas from the San Souci manuscripts upon which the modern editions are based. There are informative notes on performance discussing tempo, cadenzas, ornamentation, trills, etc. in the back of the flute part. The keyboard part also has informative notes as well. Volume One and Two are for more scholarly flutists who want to be challenged in the correct/enlightened interpretation of Baroque sonatas. Definitely not for the average high school student. There are several modern collections of Quantz flute sonatas that will meet their needs that are not a technically demanding.
