Bocherini's Gold (2022-).
Boccherini’s Gold is an ongoing project by Sally Walker. Focussing on the seldom performed/recorded but wonderfully inventive chamber works of Luigi Boccherini for flute, the project has incorporated private recording preview concerts at the Adelaide Baroque Hall prior to its public opening with Boccherini’s Opus 19 Quintets (G. 425 – 430) for Flute, 2 Violins, Viola and Cello his Quintet in C (no Opus or G. [Gerard] number) for Flute, Oboe, Violin, Viola and Cello and his Notturno (Sestetto no. 1) in Eb, G. 467 for Oboe or Flute, Bassoon, Horn, Violin, Viola and Double Bass. These same works were recorded at the North Adelaide Baroque Hall on January 21st – 27th, 2023 with Flute – Sally Walker, Oboe - Celia Craig, Bassoon - Mark Gaydon, Horn - Sarah Barrett, Violin - Elizabeth Layton, Violin - Alison Rayner, Viola - Stephen King, Cello - Thomas Marlin, Double Bass - Robert Nairn, Sound - Kyron Audio, Producer - Lachlan Bramble. The existing editions pose many dilemmas: discrepancies in Opus numbers, interpretative questions of terms and engrossing musical decisions to be made.
