Baston galt als hervorragender Block- und Querflötist und war während des frühen 18. Jahrhunderts in Lon-doner Opernorchestern tätig. Seine leichten, die elegante Melodik der Frühklassik vorwegnehmenden Konzerte erfreuen sich großer Beliebtheit und stellen für Musikschulorchester und fortgeschrittene Blockflötisten eine dankbare Aufgabe dar. Besetzung : treble recorder, strings and basso continuo
