The Bohemian born composer Antonio Rosetti was one of the most famous musicians and composers of his day. His elegant melodic writing, inventiveness and compositional refinement were frequently the reason to compare his works to those of Mozart and Haydn. These world premiere recordings by the ensemble Compagnia di Punto reveal the last hidden treasures within his multi-facetted and fascinating symphonic and concert repertoire.

The Cologne-based historical-performance group Compagnia di Punto has mostly specialized in Baroque and Classical-period music, but here, perhaps due to the fact that the ill-fated year of 2020 marks Beethoven's 250th birthday, they offer arrangements of Beethoven's first three symphonies for a small orchestra. The group includes 13 players: four violinists, one each of viola, cello, and bass, two flutes, bassoon, and three horns. By now, most listeners realize that 19th century listeners, unable to just download the latest Beethoven symphony, relied on arrangements of this kind to hear new music, but the idea needs repetition and new recordings like this one.
