Summary of This Score
This edition of the Sonata in C Major for Bassoon by Fasch is closely based on an old copy from the holdings of the Fuerstenberg Herdringen Library in Arnsberg. The editorial work aims to provide the clearest possible reading of the source materials while respecting the manuscript's peculiarities. Certain sections required special attention, particularly when the copyist, though very careful in his corrections, does not always provide explicit indications regarding possible analogies or divergences in the basso continuo figured bass. Clearly faulty accidentals have been corrected, and all added suggestions (as well as the recommended phrasing according to period performance practice) are systematically identified. An ideal score for bassoonists wishing to approach a Baroque sonata with continuo accompaniment, working on rhythmic precision, implicit ornamentation, and line leading.
