Packaged alongside some truly sumptuous new performances of classic Mozart flute concertos, it’s the perfect time to discover one by an unknown composer by the name of Josef Myslivecek - a contemporary of Mozart’s who hasn’t enjoyed quite the same level of success over the intervening centuries. As you’d expect, it’s all expertly delivered by longterm collaborators Ana de la Vega and the English Chamber Orchestra.
