Benedetto Marcello: Sonata for Cello and Basso continuo Op. 2 No. 1: Cello

The sonatas published in 1732 in Amsterdam, London and Paris under Benedetto Marcello?s name are to the present day firmly established in the cello repertoire. Although Marcello?s authorship is not undisputed ? by this time, the composer had already specialised in sacred works ? the musical beauty of the sonatas is all the more captivating. This four-movement F major Sonata offers all cellists well-versed in the first four positions a good introduction to the classical literature and to reading tenor clef. In this Urtext edition, the figured continuo part is additionally furnished with an easy-to-play keyboard realisation by Wolfgang Kostujak. The enclosed solo part provides fingerings and bowing marks for the cellist ? and thus the optimal provisions for a class recital!

This Sonata is a beautiful work for Cello arranged here with a realised Piano Accompaniment composed by Benedetto Marcello (1686-1739).The solo cello part is also included on a separate insert.

A minor - VC/BC - cello and basso continuo (harpsichord/piano); cello (viola da gamba) ad lib. editor: Ruf, Hugo composer: Marcello, Benedetto Éditeur: Schott Music Série: Cello Library Difficulté: Intermediate pages: 20 Die sechs Sonaten von Benedetto Marcello (1686-1739) gehören neben denjenigen von Antonio Vivaldi zu den bekanntesten Barockkompositionen für Violoncello und Basso continuo. Schon zu Lebzeiten des zu seiner Zeit durchaus berühmten Komponisten wurde die Sammlung in den wichtigen europäischen Musikmetropolen London, Paris und Amsterdam in Drucken angeboten. Auch wenn es einige unbequeme Griffverbindungen in diesen Sonaten gibt, die daher rühren dürften, dass Marcello mit einem fünfsaitigen, um eine e’-Saite ergänzten Cello rechnete, so sind sie doch von moderater Schwierigkeit und gehören zu den Standardwerken des Violoncellounterrichts.
