It was the Weihnachtskonzert (Christmas concerto) in C major that won special popularity continuing a tradition which was cultivated by Corelli with his pastoral at the end of Op. 6 No. 8 or by Torelli in his Op. 8 No. 6 and reaching to the pastoral in Händel's Messiahs and to the sinfonia in the second cantata of Johann Sebastian Bach's Christmas oratorium. This finally originates from the music-making of shepherds - coming from the Abruzzi and from Calabria to Rome at Christmas to play the shawm and the bagpipes in front of the cribs. Hence the popular consecutive thirds and the sustained bass tones characterizing the first Largo a genuine siciliano in the rocking typically dotted 12/8 time.

Separate bass part for performance e.g. with cello accompaniment.Schott Violin Library includes eleven contrasting Baroque sonatas for violin and continuo bass. Besides popular and well-known sonatas by Corelli, Vivaldi, Handel and Telemann there are also delightful less familiar compositions by Dall'Abaco, Pepusch and Finger, among others. All these pieces are at lower to intermediate level. Some of them can be played in first position throughout, while others require just a few position changes, but the sonatas by Dall'Abaco, Kirchhoff, Vivaldi and Handel require fluent use of the first three positions. The pieces brought together in this book are the best-loved works from the popular series Schott Violin Library (VLB) and other violin repertoire published by Schott. / Violon Et Basse Continue

For the six concertos that make up the second part of the Op. 4 Locatelli prescribed eight parts: Violino Primo Secondo Alto è Violoncello Soli. Violino Primo Secondo Alto è Basso Ripieni. The use of such forces immediately reminds one of the Corellian concerto grosso to which Locatelli contributed also in his Op. 1 7 and 9. But though the instrumentation used in this set seems to feature a clear opposition between the concertino (with solo parts) and the ripieno (with parts that can be doubled) we here encounter a group of works that are very varied in form instrumentation and structure. Taken as a whole the concertos of the Op. 4 ideally exemplify thedevelopments of Italian Baroque instrumental music: they reveal the close kinship between the concerto grosso and the sonata (as in Concerto X); they also show the derivation of the solo concerto from the concerto grosso; and there are even hints of thematic development and tripartite structures. Also featured are dynamic markings and other performing indications that were rare for the period and show increasing attention to the precise definition of sonorities.

Clarinet performer and professor Denise Schmidt has compiled a comprehensive collection of solos for clarinet players with a fine mix of transcriptions of familiar classics and solos written for the clarinet. This All-Time Favourites folio has pieces from all periods of music and contains the music of Bach Beethoven Bizet Corelli Faure Gounod Handel Satie and many more.

Présentation Jean-Marie Leclair est le plus éminent représentant de l'école française de violon du XVIIIe siècle. Cette nouvelle publication en partition des Editions du Centre de musique baroque de Versailles propose à tous les violonistes, mais aussi aux ensembles, spécialistes ou non de ce répertoire, de jouer ses concertos, véritables manifestes d'une virtuosité instrumentale au service du goût musical français. Jean-Marie Leclair naît à Lyon en 1697. A partir de 1722 il effectue plusieurs voyages dans le Piémont, où il sera en particulier l'élève de Somis qui lui transmet l'enseignement du fameux Corelli. Cette rencontre, déterminante pour le compositeur, lui fait embrasser une carrière de soliste. Sa virtuosité, toujours au service de la musique, bouleverse entièrement la pratique violonistique en France, créant une véritable école. De 1728, où démarre sa carrière au Concert Spirituel à Paris, jusqu'à son assassina en 1764, il n'aura de cesse d'écrire et de jouer, que ce soit pour son instrument ou dans des 'uvres ambitieuses. Ce concerto pour violon et orchestre op. VII n°5, probablement des années 1737, est en la mineur. En trois mouvements (Allegro, Largo, Allegro assai), il dure environ un quart d'heure. A la façon d'un concerto grosso, un 'Violino concertino' alterne la direction de l'orchestre et de larges passages solo. L'orchestre est constitué de deux parties de violons, une partie d'alto, une partie de basse et d'une basse continue.

These sonatas are among the epoch-making works of the violin repertoire and nowadays figure in the standard repertoire of every violinist. It is all the more surprising, therefore, that until now there has been no Urtext edition of such significant works.The score is based on a first edition supervised by Corelli himself. From what we know of performance practice in Corelli's time, however, more was expected of the violinist than just a musical reading of the printed score: it was customary to add ornamentation verging on improvisation, with embellishment and variations as desired. The original score is therefore presented here with the earliest documented ornamentation from a reprint published by Roger in Amsterdam in 1708. This ornamentation is not meant to be slavishly imitated, but to stimulate the player to find their own creative and stylistically confident interpretation of the score. As Roger did not specify any ornaments for the sonatas in the second volume, the variations as desired used by Corelli's pupil Geminiani have been reproduced with the ninth Sonata as an example.Advice on performance is given by the Cologne baroque specialist Reinhard Goebel. This advice does not only apply to ornamentation, but also to articulation, bowings and more besides, calling for specific markings in the separate violin part.The realisation of the continuo part echoes the fashions of that time. Here too, advice on performance is meant to stimulate free interpretation by the continuo player. A figured bass part is included for the player who prefers to read the accompaniment from figures.Content : Sonate D-Dur op. 5,1Sonate B-Dur op. 5,2Sonate C-Dur op. 5,3Sonate F-Dur op. 5,4Sonate g-Moll op. 5,5Sonate A-Dur op. 5,6

Sonaten op. 1: Nr. 1 4 und 9 op. 3: Nr. 2 4 und 12. Very few works in music history have been associated with the phrase 'epoch-making' yet Arcangelo Corelli's Trio Sonatas are among them. In 1681 and 1685 with the composition of Sonate da chiesa Op. 1 and Sonate da camera Op. 2 Corelli laid the foundation for a genre which was to be the chamber music format for almost 100 years. It was only in 1781 that it was superseded by Joseph Haydn's String Quartets Op. 33 which were also highly significant to the era. From a historical point of view the String Quartet can be viewed as a 'child' of the trio sonata. As a result Wiener Urtext Edition have published a selection of 12 of a total of 48 trio sonatas due to the 300th anniversary of the composer's death. Volume 1 contains six sonatas of the Da Chiesa model Volume 2 six pieces of the Da Camera type. This new edition was based on original editions the first Italian reprints as well as the Rogers Amsterdam edition. In addition to parts for the melodic instruments the new edition also contains a Continuo score with realised easily playable Basso Continuo. This edition is perfectly suitable as an introduction into chamber music.

Cello & Piano book I and book II (Z14637) contain a selection from 200 years of music. Eight Baroque sonatas are included apart from the famous D minor one by Corelli there are some that are appearing in a modern edition for the first time in 300 years. In addition to cyclical works (Haydn: Sonatina Mozart: Divertimento Vivaldi: Concerto) and sets of variations (Beethoven Tartini) there are many shorter pieces as well not only the famous minuets by Boccherini Mozart and Beethoven but also works published for the first time here. Virtuoso pieces are represented by Goltermann’s Etude-caprice and Jenkinson's Dance of the sylphids thelighter kind include Joplin’s Ragtime. This colourful ample selection provides a good basis for a music-lover's library. Book I Contents: 1. Corelli Arcangelo: Sonate Op. 5 No.8 2. Scarlatti Domenico: Sonata 3. Jacchini G. M.: Sonata 4.

C'est le 'Weihnachtskonzert' (concerto de Noël) en do majeur qui a remporté la popularité spéciale, une tradition qui a été cultivée par Corelli avec sa pastorale à la fin de l'OP 6 #8 ou par Torelli dans son Opus 8 #6 et atteindre de la pastorale dans 'Messies' de Händel et de la sinfonia dans la seconde cantate d'oratorium de Noël de Johann Sebastian Bach. Cela, enfin, provient de la musique-fabrication de bergers - venant des Abruzzes et de Calabre à Rome à Noël pour jouer la chalemie et la cornemuse en face des lits d'enfant. D'où les tiers consécutives populaires et les tons bass soutenues caractérisant la première ' Largo ', un véritable siciliano dans la bascule, généralement pointé 12/8 temps. / 2 Violons, Violoncelle, Orchestre A Cordes Et Clavecin

Très peu de travaux en histoire de la musique ont été associées à l'expression 'epoch-making' encore les Sonates en trio de Corelli sont parmi eux. En 1681 et 1685, avec la composition du Sonate da chiesa op. 1 et Sonate da camera op. 2, Corelli jeté les bases d'un genre qui devait être le format de musique de chambre depuis presque 100 ans. C'est seulement en 1781 qu'il a été remplacé par Quatuors à cordes de Joseph Haydn Op. 33, qui étaient également très importante à l'époque.D'un point de vue historique, le quatuor à cordes peut être considérée comme un 'enfant' de la sonate en trio, donc,En conséquence, Wiener Urtext édition ont publié une sélection de 12 sur un total de 48 sonates en trio en raison de la 300e anniversaire de la mort du compositeur.Le volume 1 contient six sonates du modèle Chiesa Da, Volume 2 six pièces de type Da Camera.Cette nouvelle édition a été basée sur les éditions originales, les premières rééditions italiennes ainsi que l'édition Rogers Amsterdam. En plus de pièces pour les instruments mélodiques, la nouvelle édition contient également un score continue à réaliser, facilement jouable basso continuo.Cette édition est parfaitement approprié comme une introduction à la musique de chambre. / 2 Violons, Violoncelle Et Orgue (Piano)
