Oboist Celine Moinet has already released threealbums on Berlin Classics with music by Bach, Schumann and French composers. Now she returnswith an album, where she pairs Mozart's Adagio forEnglish Horn K580a and Oboe Quartet with worldpremiere recordings of the works by Luigi Gatti: Quartet in F major and C major. The Italian composersettled down in Salzburg in 1782, when he was already an acquaintence to the Mozart family. Worth discovering are Gatti's chamber works, created during his later years as a retiree after the secularisation and dissolution of the Salzburg prince-archbishopric in 1803. These works reveal him as a skilled and inventive master of form, as well as an experimenter in instrumentation. The F major quartet, in particular, presents considerable virtuoso challenges, including passages that push the oboe's range even higher than Mozart's quartet, reaching up to high G (g'). This daring extension of the oboe's tonal possibilities marks Gatti as an innovator and serves as a testament to his creative spirit.
