Milena Solcova Plays Divertimento No.2 by de Fossa

Milena Solcova plays Divertimento No.2 from Quatre Divertissements Op. 13 – Extraits Des Oeuvres De J. Haydn by François de Fossa (1775–1849) on a F. Munoz Alba 2022 classical guitar. This comes via the Siccas Guitars and their fantastic YouTube channel. This is the first time featuring Solcova on the site. Great dynamic shaping and articulations throughout. I really like her mix of musical phrasing but also fairly direct and forward moving performance. There is a Rondo that comes after this movement as well and would love to see her perfomance of that as well! François de Fossa composed some excellent repertoire, I hope to make some editions soon.

I am so grateful to have musicians who share their talent with expressing their passion, love into each piece they play. Thank you Bradford Werner for sharing!
