Händel, Georg Friedrich (1685-1759)
Complete Works for Violin and Basso continuo
Instrumentation: Violin, Basso continuo
* George Frideric Handel
Handel returned repeatedly throughout his life to the composition of
works for violin and
basso continuo.
The earliest autograph, HWV 358, was composed around 1707, his last
work for this
combination of instruments, the Sonata in D major, HWV 371, stems
from circa 1750.
In addition to the 5 sonatas, which have survived as autographs,
there are 4 other sonatas of
a spurious nature which have found a place in the violin repertoire
under Handel’s name
although they are certainly not from his pen. These sonatas are
attempts by other unknown
composers to make a name by using the style of the great master. To
round off this first ever
publication of Handels Complete Works for Violin and Basso
continuo, there are two
movements currently not available in any other performing edition:
the Allegro, HWV 408 and
an Andante, HWV 412.
