Summary of This Score
"Full score and parts - Gerhard Braun edition" offers a practical reading of a work by Giovanni Battista Fontana, designed for a chamber music ensemble with two voices notated 2 Vn (Flb) and basso continuo (Bc). The full score enables the ensemble leader, teacher, or continuo player to maintain an overall view of the polyphony and entrances, while the separate parts facilitate each musician's work at their stand. The indicated instrumentation reveals two melodic lines (marked "Vn (Flb)") supported by a basso continuo, a typical configuration for approaching the style, articulation, and balance characteristic of the Baroque repertoire. This score is suitable for an early music workshop, a conservatory student ensemble, or instrumentalists wishing to work on intonation, phrase shaping, and dialogue between voices, with a solid foundation for performing the continuo accompaniment.
