Frederick the Great's sister, Wilhelmine, was instrumental in transforming Bayreuth into a great center of culture, where she employed Adam Falckenhagen, who wrote exquisite Concerti for obbligato baroque lute, baroque flute and cello. Wilhelmine played the lute and her husband was a flutist, as was his brother-in-law, Frederick the Great, who was surely familiar with these concerti for three instruments.
