Only a handful of Schreivogel’s compositions for his instrument have survived. Among them is this impressive and forward-looking three-movement sonata for violin and continuo in E minor, evidently composed in the mid-1710s, which betrays the influence of Venetian composers such as Vivaldi and Albinoni. Schreivogel writes very idiomatically for the violin, but never at the cost of musical eloquence and solidity of structure.
