Joan Pla • Charles Baguer

The Joan Pla collection of six sonatas for two flutes and
the Carles Baguer eight duos for two flutes, are one of the few examples of chamber music of the eighteenth century Catalan. This music shows the compositional evolution in Catalonia in the last years of the Enlightenment.

Joan Pla, between Baroque and Classicism, a personal representative, is a follower of fashion gallant international European instrumental music of the

years 1750-1760. His sonatas for two flutes were written during his stay in London and published in Amsterdam and London in 1770. Following the inflections of the amiable gallant and rococo style, each sonata was written in three parts, we find the traditional alternating fast-slow-fast.

Carles Baguer was the greatest follower of the master Franz Joseph Haydn in the Iberian Peninsula, is the most important representative of Classical

instrumental in Catalonia at the end of the eighteenth century. Until that time the borders were not closed by the Napoleonic invasion in 1808, Baguer received and studied several works of Austrian composer. Their duets are a sign of great love for the new way of understanding the new Menuet. Similarly, the richness of articulation of classicism is very noticeable.Must be preserved in the Music Archive of the Monastery of Montserrat
