The sound of the heckelphone in particular is probably only familiar to a few.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are instruments which, despite their great potential in terms of expressiveness and tonal possibilities, have not been able to establish themselves in the classical concert. These include the pan flute as well as the heckelphone. With just over a hundred instruments in existence worldwide, the latter has its place above all in the great opera houses, where it shines with marvellous solos in operas by Richard Strauss, but also in his Alpine Symphony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Hanspeter Oggier, pan flute, and Martin Frutiger, heckelphone, Switzerland has two of the world's most outstanding soloists.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis CD features the first recordings of two concertos for these instruments.
