Rolla’s earliest duets are fully steeped in late Classical style. Such is the case with the Six Duets for Flute and Violin (1795) — here published for the first time — which are characterised by the elegance and fluidity of their melodies, their adherence to Classical forms, and the equal importance given to the two parts. As with most of Rolla’s writing, the duets also reveal an intimate familiarity with the characteristics and technical limitations of both instruments.
