Precious Offerings from Pomerania: Three Concertos and a Sinfonia by Christian Michael Wolff (1707–1789)
View through CrossRef
Christian Michael Wolff, an organist from Szczecin, is a composer already known for his songs, accompanied sonatas, chorale preludes for organ and a motet, but his orchestral music, comprising three concertos and a sinfonia preserved in manuscripts in Stockholm, have hitherto been overlooked. Close examination reveals these early works, probably composed in the 1740s, to be ambitious, attractive pieces fully deserving modern revival.
