Similar in style and form to the various sets of sonatas for two flutes without bass that Boismortier had already published prior to 1730, Op. 29 also drew inspiration from the relationship between the oboe and the military that had existed since the time of Lully. These virtually unknown sonatas are more than competently written for the baroque (and modern) instrument, and constitute a hitherto neglected treasure in the sparse repertory of works intended for a pair of unaccompanied oboes.
