Beschreibung
Quintet No. 13 – is scored for solo double bass, violin, two violas, and basso.The opening theme of the Adagio is taken from the second movement of Haydn’s Symphony No. 99, which was first heard in London shortly before Dragonetti’s arrival there in 1794. Dragonetti changed the mode of the theme from Haydn’s G major to C minor, altering the character dramatically. This gives the Adagio a tragic cast as well as an expansive feeling that sets the stage well for the extended scale figurations in the solo double-bass part. The thematic material of the Allegretto likewise owes much to a preexisting source, in this case a popular canzonetta (“Ho perso l’ogaletto”). This movement has a gracious and amiable affect and is punctuated by numerous instances of parallel fourths and fifths, perhaps an inside joke directed by the composer at some officious pedagogue. This is a really great one!

Domenico Dragonetti is best known for the reputation he made for himself as a double bassist in London. His music, here represented by string chamber works with bass, is charismatic and quirky – such as the ‘Alpine calls’ in the 18th Quintet. There is much virtuosity on display, both compositionally (testifying to Dragonetti’s legendary abilities) and in the accurate, muscular and impressively controlled playing of John Feeney, principal bassist of the Orchestra of St Luke’s.Ultimately, this is an important disc of historically interesting material and I can recommend it with enthusiasm.
