First published in 1925 by Alphonse Leduc in Paris, it appears as No. 23 in Edouard Nanny's collection \"Les Classiques de la Contrebasse.\" For years, the attribution to Domenico Dragonetti was unquestioned. However, through research and comparison with preserved manuscripts (notably those related to Dragonetti), the absence of an original manuscript for this concerto and stylistic similarities with Edouard Nanny's writing have led many musicians to consider the work as probably composed by Nanny, in a language inspired by the late 18th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond this question of authenticity, the score stands out for its musical effectiveness: lyrical lines, well-measured virtuosity, and evocative character. The concerto \"works\" very well in concert, featuring pleasant-to-hear writing while offering the soloist demanding passages (bow control, intonation in high positions, articulation, and coordination with the piano). Nearly a century after its publication, it remains a reliable choice to enrich a recital program or to study a classical reference repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorical note: the 1st movement was performed in London at Wigmore Hall on April 15, 1926, by Victor Watson (double bass) and Sidney Crooke (piano), and presented as a \"Contrabass Concerto by Dragonetti-Nanny.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eErrata (piano part):\u003c\/strong\u003e page 8 (1st movement), measure 87, last chord of the measure in the right hand: the notes should be \u003cstrong\u003eD\/E\/G#\u003c\/strong\u003e (dominant 7th chord in A major).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eClassical\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSheet music\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eDomenico Dragonetti (attributed) \/ Edouard Nanny (probable)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e\u0026quot;Les Classiques de la Contrebasse\u0026quot; (No. 23)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eAlphonse Leduc (Paris)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eclassical score (concerto)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003edouble bass and piano\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear of publication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1925\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Recital Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54360719065363,"sku":"254228","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/d74a3e8e1ea137eb244e8d29cfd2c049280d0aec_RM558_611ad60d-7456-415a-99bc-55c928819949.jpg?v=1789483001","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/recital-music-dragonetti-nanny-concerto-a-major-solo-tuning-contrebasse-piano-254228","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
