Summary of This Score
Sonata in C major; Sonata in A major; Sonata in A major. offers three sonatas designed for a solo voice and basso continuo, in a spirit of musical conversation typical of chamber repertoire. The keys (C major and A major) provide a comfortable ground to approach instrumental singing, articulation, phrase shaping, and balance with the accompaniment.
The solo part is indicated for VdG, with options (Vn, Fl) allowing these sonatas to be performed on viola da gamba, violin, or flute, depending on your ensemble. On the accompaniment side, the presence of basso continuo (Bc) invites assembling a custom continuo group (for example with harpsichord, organ, theorbo, cello, or viol), and working on listening, pulse, and shared breathing.
This collection is particularly relevant if you are looking for a sonata score to enrich your repertoire, prepare a chamber music session, or simply vary instrumental combinations (viola da gamba, violin, flute) around the same musical text. An excellent foundation to develop musicality, rhythmic precision, and overall coherence, both in rehearsal and concert.
