Notes & Reviews:

At the age of twenty Andreas Blau was already the solo flutist in the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. He made countless recordings and concerts with Herbert von Karajan, Claudio Abbado, and Simon Rattle while always seeking to explore the limits of his instrument, whether as a member of the Berlin Philharmonic Soloists or as the founder of the Fourteen Berlin Flutists. The flutist and his equally dexterous piano partner Hendrik Heilmann deliver with light hand some two-dozen great popular favorites from “Greensleeves” to “The Godfather” in sophisticated arrangements.
