Antonio
Vivaldiâ??s twelve
concertos op. 4 known by
the name of â??La
Stravaganzaâ? were
first mentioned as a
collection of
â??Concerti a 4â? in
the 1711 Foreword of
â??Lâ??Estro
Armonicoâ? op. 3.
Their publication had to
wait until 1716, when
Estienne Roger issued
them in two volumes of
six concertos each.
However, unlike the
original announcement,
â??La Stravaganzaâ?
is more than a collection
of concertos for solo
violin with string
accompaniment: in five of
the concertos the soloist
is joined by a second
solo violin or even by a
solo violoncello
(Concerto No.
7).
The many
reprints of â??La
Stravaganzaâ? bear
witness to its popularity
and widespread
dissemination well into
the 1730s. Besides the
surviving prints, there
is a significant body of
handwritten sources
containing alternative
versions for seven of the
concertos. Some of these
manuscripts stem from the
music library of Johann
Georg
Pisendel.
This
edition of â??La
Stravaganzaâ? is not
only the first
scholarly-critical
edition, it is also the
only complete edition
available. In addition to
the twelve concertos
handed down in the Roger
edition, Bärenreiter
offers an additional
concerto in full score,
piano reduction and parts
contained in the 1728
print issued by the
English publishers Walsh
and Hare, as well as
alternative versions
(without viola) found in
handwritten sources for
Concertos No. 6 (Volume
1) and No. 11 (Volume
2).

In a
miscellaneous manuscript
in the Este Music
Collection belonging to
the Österreichische
Nationalbibliothek in
Vienna, a new sonata for
violin and basso continuo
by Antonio Vivaldi has
recently been identified.
Although it has until now
been attributed by
default to the Bolognese
Giuseppe Aldrovandini, by
virtue of a heading
written (but subsequently
rubbed out) by the
copyist of the manuscript
on one of the pages of
the violin part, this
sonata has been
recognized as an
authentic composition by
the Red Priest. This work
- which can be placed
chronologically no later
than the middle of the
1710s - represents the
most clear-cut example in
Vivaldi's music of a
“Sonate auf
Concertenart”: more
specifically, a kind of
solo sonata for violin
that the Red Priest could
perform in order to show
off his prowess on that
instrument, as signalled
by the presence of many
passages featuring double
stoppingor the use of the
ultra-high register.
