ISBN 9790001132381. 9.0x12.0x0.24 inches.

Kirchhoff was born in Muhlbeck (near Bitterfeld) in 1685 and died in Halle in 1746. He was (like Handel) a pupil of Zachov and in 1714 became Zachov's successor as organist and Director Musices at the Marienkirche in Halle. His violin sonatas, which were praised by Leopold Mozart, are very well suited for use in teaching the violin, as they are skilfully structured around the capabilities of the instrument. Especially recommended for friends of baroque violin music.

Whil e one tends to associate the trio sonata for two violins and continuo with Italy, the trio sonata for flute, violin and continuo was largely the province of German composers (including Telemann, J.S. Bach, Handel, and then later Quantz, C.Ph.E. Bach, C.H. Graun and other musicians attached to the court of Frederick the Great). It is therefore surprising to discover that one of the very first collections of trio sonatas for this particular scoring was composed by the Frenchman Joseph Bodin de Boismortier (1689-1755), whose sonatas were moreover intentionally written in the ‘Italian style’.

Die vorliegende Sonate entstammt einem Manuskript aus dem 18. Jahrhundert. Es umfasst 54 Sonaten fur ein Melodieinstrument und Bc sowie einige Duette fur Traversfloten; dieses Manuskript ist wahrscheinlich eine Abschrift der Sammlung von Traversfloten-Sonaten, die Friedrich der Grosse anlegen liess. Unter den Komponisten befinden sich bekannte Namen (Handel, Telemann, Vivaldi u.a.); weniger bekannte (Loeillet, Schickhardt, u.a.), etliche Anonymi bestreiten den Rest. Auffallend ist die Bevorzugung der Traversflote: Kompositionen fur dieses Instrument umfassen zwei Drittel aller Sonaten, darunter etliche Bearbeitungen originaler Violinkompositionen. Vielleicht ein Hinweis auf eine in das fruhe 18. Jahrhundert zu legende Entstehungszeit der Sammlung, als die Traversflote in Mode kam und es an originalen Kompositionen fur sie noch fehlte. - Die vorliegende Sonate eines Monsieur Walter (der vollstandige Name sowie die Lebensstationen des Komponisten konnten nicht in Erfahrung gebracht werden) ist im Manuskript fur Violine bestimmt; ihr Tonumfang entspricht aber der Traversflote. DIe Sonate ist stark von den Violinsonaten op. 5 von Arcangelo Corelli (Rom 1700) beeinflusst. Die zahlreichen Fiorituren (Verzierungen) in den langsamen Satzen bieten ein hervorragendes Anschauungsmaterial im Hinblick auf ahnliche, schlicht notierte Satze derselben Epoche.
