product description
for violin (recorder, cornett) & b. c., first edition after the manuscripts of Modena and Turin, edited by Jolando Scarpa. Stradella can be considered one of Corelli’s precursors, not only owing to his typical cantabile and great expressiveness, but because he helped shape the compositional form of the concerto grosso by means of his outstanding instrumental music. The violin is not expressly specified as the solo instrument in the source, so that the sinfonias can also be performed with recorder or cornetto. Series Frutti Musicali
„Stradella gehört zweifellos zu den genialsten Komponisten des 17. Jh. Allen Geigern, die sich für ihr Repertoire aus der zweiten Hälfte des 17. Jh. zwischen Castello/Fontana und Corelli interessieren, würde ich die Beschäftigung mit diesen originellen Werken anhand dieser Ausgaben dringend ans Herz legen! “ Tibia, 1/2016
