He succeeded in establishing an exceptional career primarily as flautist and composer, but also as author and flute maker. When his father died prematurely in 1707, he was initially apprenticed to his uncle, Justus Quantz, a city professional musician in Merseburg. Quantz during the course of his apprenticeship familiarized himself with a number of instruments, concentrating on the violin, oboe and trumpet. In a later published autobiographical summary, he reported that he additionally became familiar with all other instruments including cornetts, trombones, hunting horn, recorder, bassoon, German double bass and other. Through his teachers, Quantz became familiar with the works of leading composers at that time such as Telemann, Heinichen, Biber and Corelli. During a three-month mourning period at the Merseburg court in 1714, Quantz was temporarily employed as a city wait in Radenberg and Pirna where he first came into contact with copies of several violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi: their ritornellos would "in later periods serve as a good model" as described in his autobiography. Quantz was appointed by August II, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, as an oboist in the newly formed chamber ensemble "Polish Chapel" which was active both in Warsaw and Dresden. For Quantz, this meant promotion from city wait to the profession of orchestral musician and e abandoned the violin, up till now his primary instrument, in favor of the oboe. At a later point, Quantz reports: "I was however hindered from progressing on both instruments, which was a matter close to my heart. My dissatisfaction prompted me to devote myself intensively to the transverse flute which I had up until then only practiced on my own". A large proportion of the compositional output of Johann Joachim Quantz has been preserved up to the present day, in particular the works written for the crown prince and subsequent King Frederick II. The approximately 291 surviving flute concertos from the most substantial group of works alongside vocal music, several orchestral works, trio and quartet sonatas and around 184 sonatas for transverse flute and basso continuo (this video). It is probable that some of these works were composed during the Dresden period and were subsequently incorporated into repertoire in Berlin, but the majority of the concertos were created specifically for Frederick II and took the stylistic preferences of the royal flute pupil into consideration. These works show that Quantz was able to blend the wide palette of impressions gained from his teachers and his extensive travels to Italy, France and England to form a highly individual style.
