Info for Corelli: Sonatas for Viola da Gamba & Continuo

Im 18. Jahrhundert eroberte die Sonate durch die veröffentlichten Werke von Arcangelo Corelli das gesamte musikalische Europa. Das ganze Jahrhundert hindurch wurden Transkriptionen seiner Musik für jedes Instrument veröffentlicht, und die Viola da Gamba war dabei keine Ausnahme. Die interessanteste Sammlung befindet sich heute in der Bibliothèque Nationale de France in Paris (MS Vm7 6308) und enthält die zwölf Sonaten von Corellis op. 5 in Transkription für Viola da Gamba.

Obwohl sie in Paris aufbewahrt wird, deuten bestimmte Stilelemente darauf hin, dass diese Transkription aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum stammt, mit besonderem Bezug auf Komponisten wie Johannes Schenck, Konrad Höffler oder Gottfried Finger, deren Werke stark von Corellis Stil beeinflusst waren. Diesem Repertoire widmet Teodoro Bau, Gewinner des Wettbewerbs MA Festival Brügge 2021, seine Aufnahme.
