VIVALDI RV 443 PICC CONCERTO ARR FOR EB CLARINET AND CLARINET CHOIR.  Essential: Eb soloist, Bb1,2,3 or Alto, Bass.  Optional Contra-alto, Contrabass. This Concerto in C Major for flautino RV443 dates from1728-29. It was probably composed for the Ospedale della Pietà in Venice, the convent/orphanage with which he was affiliated.. The girls of the Pietà were famous throughout Europe for their musical performances. . Since the term “flautino” was not generally used in Vivaldi’s day, scholars have speculated ever since about what instrument Vivaldi had in mind. The leading candidate is the sopranino recorder. However, later in the 18th century the transverse flute replaced the recorder in general use, and a new edition of RV 443 was published for the piccolo, a member of the flute family.

There are several passages with only the bass line accompanying, and no figures, so I have "realised" some of these. Some of the accompaniment rhythm patterns, originally for strings, seem too heavy-footed on clarinets, so I have made a few tiny modifications in them. The cadenza, all the articulations and dynamics are mine. 9 minutes if the soloist is very agile.
