The most critical Leopold Mozart appreciated the chamber music works by Johann Christian Bach the light, fluid style and remarked quite rightly that compose such music is more difficult "than all the most incomprehensible Artificial harmonic progressions and difficult to execute Melodyen".

The chamber music of the two was probably for private concerts at the House of Composers in aristocratic or wealthy bourgeois patrons and of course at the soirees of the English queen who was even an accomplished harpsichordist.

Performed by a top-notch ensemble occupied as Il Gardellino unfolds the music only her charm.
