As far as we know Vivaldi wrote twenty trio sonatas. Several of these works are actually for two parts, as the continuo merely doubles one of the two solo instruments. In the titles of four of these trio sonatas ('Suonata da camera, a 2 violini anco senza basso se piace', meaning if desired the sonata can be played without the bass part) Vivaldi himself gave his approval to the omission of the third instrument. In the light of this, the present publication gives the four works in the form of violin duos.We recommend these three-movement sonatas, in a fast-slow-fast format, for violinists who are already advanced in their studies. 1. Sonata RV 702. Sonata RV 713. SonataRV 684. Sonata RV 77.

Bois mortier - Premier Balet de Village - Joseph Boismortier (1689-1755) was unusual for his time in that he had no patron, and worked independantly. Much of his music is for the flute, with his Six Sonatas Op. 91 being most performed now. This is the first of four 'Balets', published in 1734. In two sections, the first in simple time and the second in compound time. Elegant and carefree music. Haydn - Piano Trio in G minor Hob.XV:19 - 2nd movement - This tiny movement crams in much of Haydn's creative style. Cheeky chromaticism, canonic entries, elegantly balanced phrases and good humour prevail, with a virtuosic section for the first flute in the middle. Delibes - Les Trois Oiseaux - A French composer known mostly for vocal works, this piece was originally a song for two sopranos and piano. The rippling semiquavers suggest the fluttering wings of the birds in the title. Phillipe Gaubert - Divertissement Grec - Originally for two flutes and harp, this sways seductively ebbing and flowing like the waves on a Mediterranean beach. Josef Suk – Bagatela - Joseph Suk was a Czech composer and violinist. He studied under Dvorak, whose daughter he married. His only composition in regular performance now is his Serenade for Strings Op. 6, but he wrote a large amount of music in all genres. This is a charmingly relaxed piece, displaying some of his Czech influences.

String quartet

Composed by Jordi Cervello. Instrumental Sets. Duration 10:12. Published by Editorial de Musica Boileau (BO.B.3388).

English comments:
A Bach for string quartet is another evocation of the past, in this case of J.S. Bach's works for violin. Written in 2004, it is a recreation of two of the most important movements in the series of Sonatas and Partitas: The Adagio of the third Sonata and the Prelude of the third Partita (BWV 1005 and 1006, respectively). Jordi Cervello was a violinist and, as such, it should come as no surprise that he once again makes use of compositions written for his instrument. The Adagio, here in common time (the original by Bach is in three-four time), keeps up the constant rhythmic figure of the dotted quaver and semi-quaver throughout the movement, with a calmness that is shrouded in mystery. The second movement, Preludiando, retains the same lively spirit as the original, but explores different moods. Moments of calm, vigour and even some dramatic points give it a new dimension thanks to the fact that it is written for a quartet and to Cervello's original treatment of harmony and counterpoint.

Co mentarios del Espanol:
A Bach para cuarteto de cuerda es otra evocacion del pasado, en este caso de la obra para violin de J.S. Bach. Escrita el ano 2004, se trata de una recreacion de dos de los movimientos mas importantes de la serie de Sonatas y Partitas: El Adagio de la tercera Sonata y el Preludio de la tercera Partita (BWV 1005 y 1006 respectivamente). Jordi Cervello fue violinista y, como tal, no debe sorprender que una vez mas se sirva de material compositivo procedente de su instrumento. El Adagio, aqui en compas de cuatro (el original de Bach es de tres) conserva en todo el movimiento la constante figura ritmica de corchea con puntillo y semicorchea, dentro de un clima sereno pero rodeado de misterio. El segundo movimiento, Preludiando, conserva el mismo espiritu vivo del original, pero recorriendo diferentes estados de animo. Momentos de calma, de vigor e incluso dramaticos dan nueva dimension gracias a la escritura cuartetistica y al original tratamiento armonico y contrapuntistico de Cervello. A Bach se estreno en La Pedrera de Barcelona dentro del ciclo Celebracions de la Fundacio Caixa de Catalunya en el ano 2006 con el Quarteto Prometeo.

Flute Trio (2fl, bs fl) - Intermediate

SKU: FT.FM051

Composed by Arcangelo Corelli. Arranged by Robert Rainford. Score and parts. Forton Music #FM051. Published by Forton Music (FT.FM051).

ISBN 9790708085508.

Flut e Trio - three flutes or two flutes and alto/bass flute. These transcriptions of Corelli's Op. 2 Trio Sonatas make great ensembles for grade 5 players. Each sonata consists of four small movements, varying in length from 8 bars to about 50 bars. Movement titles are taken from dance suites of the time, but the tempi do not necessarily reflect the titles. The top two flute parts are rhythmically independant, while the third part provides the bass line. (An alto flute part is included as an alternative to a concert flute for part 3). Key signatures are simple (C, G major and A minor), giving the players time to focus on the polyphonic lines. Flute one reaches top G very occasionally, whilst flute 2 reaches top F# once. Musically both interesting and attractive.
