There is little flute music from the middle of the 19th century. The notes for this release by flutist Emmanuel Pahud and pianist Eric Le Sage point out that this was likely because the flute was in a technological trough during this period, with the advances that led to the modern flute still several decades in the future. Not a one of the works on this album was written for the flute. The three Romances, Op. 94, of Robert Schumann were for the oboe, while Clara Schumann's set was composed for the violinist Joseph Joachim; six lieder by Fanny Mendelssohn fit well on the flute, and Felix Mendelssohn's Sonata in F major was for violin originally. Nowhere is it stated whose transcriptions these are; perhaps they are Pahud's own, although the notes refer to Jean-Pierre Rampal's transcription that brought the Robert Schumann Romances into the flute repertory. At any rate, a flutist of the late 19th century would have found this project entirely congenial. There are several attractive features here, beginning with the graceful, thoroughly French-school readings by Pahud; his agile, joyous reading of Felix Mendelssohn's sonata finale is one of the highlights. The pieces by the female spouses are also unusually strong; the Romances of Clara Schumann, writing for the leading violinists of the age, are certainly not unknown, but they're still not the commonplace of the concert stage they should be, and their rather delicate tone comes off well on the flute. Warner Classics' thoroughly idiomatic sound from the Namur Concert Hall in Belgium is yet another draw on an album that anyone can enjoy.
