Summary of This Score
Concerto in G major, RV 312R
for Flautino (Sopranino/Alto Recorder or Transverse Flute)
and Piano (Jean Cassignol)
This score offers a concerto from the RV (Ryom-Verzeichnis) catalogue, in a reconstructed version adapted for piano-vocal : the keyboard part replaces the orchestra and allows working on the piece in a practical format, whether in lessons, conservatory, or preparing for a concert. The main interest of this edition lies in the reconstruction : within the manuscript of concerto RV 312 (originally a violin concerto), a crossed-out sketch of an "Ur-Flautinokonzert" preserved musically ambitious passages.
Jean Cassignol, musicologist and recorder specialist, offers here a reconstruction "in the spirit of Bach," aiming to restore coherence and continuity to the existing musical material. The result particularly highlights the flautino, an instrument now often identified, in the authentic concertos RV 443, 444, and 445, as a sopranino recorder (tuned in F). Thanks to the indicated instrumentation options, this edition is suitable both for recorder players (sopranino or alto) and transverse flutists wishing to approach this baroque repertoire with piano accompaniment.
