for Flute or Violin and Basso Continuo-Published in 1728 Telemann’s sonatas are ‘methodical’ according to the meaning of the word at the time of their publication as in addition to the plain melody line given to the soloist in the first movements they alsoprovide an ornamented variant each time. This is instructive and very enjoyable music for today’s flautists and violinists.Henle’s luxurious new publication offers a solo and basso-continuo part in which the twoinstrumental lines are aligned for orientation plus another part that gives only an unrealised (but figured) bass line. The Henle edition also includes a full score with a stylistically appropriate continuo realisation.
