Although nothing precludes our hypothesizing that the bass of the violins appeared at the same time as the other members of that family, the earliest evidence of its existence is to be found in the treatises of Agricola,1 Gerle,2 Lanfranco,3 and Jambe de Fer.4 Also significant is a fresco (1540- 42) attributed to Giulio Cesare Luini in Varallo Sesia in northern Italy, in which an early cello is represented (see Fig. 1). 1 Martin Agricola, Musica instrumentalis deudsch (Wittenberg, 1529; enlarged 5th ed., 1545), f.

  • Discographie - Tomaso Antonio Vitali – Ciaconna
    Discographie - Tomaso Antonio Vitali – Ciaconna Présentation Depuis l’époque romantique, tous les violonistes ont joué la fameuse Chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali. Mais la partition dont ils disposaient était toujours basée sur l’édition complètement modifiée qu’en avait faite le virtuose Ferdinand David vers 1860. Certains aspects étranges et les modulations inattendues de cette Chaconne ont toujours surpris les « baroqueux » qui l’on toujours considérée comme un « faux ». Repartant du manuscrit original, Stéphanie de Failly, rend à cette composition boudée une lumière nouvelle, qui la relie aux autres compositions de Tomaso Antonio Vitali et à celles de son père Giovanni Battista, dont l’inventivité et les pièces et danses variées conduisent directement aux extravagances de la Chaconne ! Distribution Stéphanie de Failly, violon Benjamin Glorieux, cello François Joubert-Caillet, basse de viole Quito Gato, théorbe & guitare Thierry Gomar, percussions Marion Fourquier, Harpe Lionel Desmeules, orgue Articles de presse LA LIBRE BELGIQUE Date ? Nicolas BLANMONT La Chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali La chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali (1663-1745) est un classique dans le répertoire des violonistes, mais la version le plus souvent jouée est une version transformée en 1860 par le violoniste Ferdinand David, virtuose romantique et créateur du concerto en mi mineur de Mendelssohn. Au point qu’on avait fini par considérer cette chaconne comme un faux. Retournant au manuscrit original conservé à Dresde, Stéphanie de Failly, accompagnée de son ensemble Clematis, rend avec virtuosité et vérité son lustre original à la composition du Vitalino, le petit Vitali : c’est que Tomaso était le fils d’un autre violoniste virtuose de l’époque baroque, Giovanni Battista.

  • DIRECTORY / LIBRARY of FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS Volume I (Up to 1789)
    DIRECTORY / LIBRARY OF FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS Volume I (up to 1789) DIRECTORIO / BIBLIOTECA DE VIOLONCELLISTAS HISTORICOS FAMOSOS Volumen I (hasta 1789) johnstone-music ENGLISH - The johnstone-music DIRECTORY / LIBRARY OF FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS PRESENTATION: Throughout history a number of interesting books have been published on the Cello – its origins, the performers, the makers/luthiers, and the repertoire. However, when reference is made to cellists they are almost always classified and organized according to national music ‘schools’. There has always been a necessity to see a real list of those contemporary cellists in each era in chronological form, with details of professional positions or activities, and this is exactly what johnstone-music offers with this unique presentation. IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY NOTE: Many people will probably simply browse with curiosity through this wonderful list of cellists who had such important careers in their time. However, it’s always a good idea to be able to do an easy search for a particular cellist that interests you! All individual inclusions of this library of cellists are in chronological order, following the order of the year of death. Why this method, and not by the more commonly used birth-year as a guide? Well, some cellists were child prodigies and already famous in their teens, whilst others took several decades before establishing themselves. Some enjoyed a very long life, such as Pau Casals, and were very active after reaching 65 years old – others unfortunately did not even reach 65 years old (or a few even to barely half this number). That is to say that sometimes cellists of a same birth year often did not coincide musically at all.

  • Boston Baroque Notes
    Members of Boston Baroque An Afternoon of Chamber Music This afternoon’s program of Baroque chamber music, designed by members of Boston Baroque especially for this Williams College appearance to complement the course “Music in History: Antiquity to 1750,” unfolds a panorama of chamber music-making across Europe during the 17th and early 18th centuries. The newly-born genre of the “sonata”, which first emerged in early 17th-century Italy, forms the backbone of the program. In the Baroque period the term “sonata” (from sonare – “to sound”, as opposed to cantare – “to sing”, from which the term “cantata” derives) generally designated multi-movement works for one or two melody instruments (usually violins, though winds were possible) supported by a continuo group (usually consisting of harpsichord or organ to fill in the harmonies, as well as a low string or wind to reinforce the bass line and occasionally contribute to the counterpoint). The first four pieces on the program trace a century’s worth of attention to this genre through the lens of four national styles – Italian, Austrian, French, and English. After a brief detour into the world of Italian variations based on the repeating harmonic patterns bergamasca and ciacona, the program concludes with two more sonatas, one a solo sonata and the other a trio sonata, representing the heights of the genre in the German-speaking lands at the end of the Baroque era. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Dario Castello, a composer and wind player active in Venice in the first half of the 17th-century, contributed substantially to the early formation of the genre with two collections of sonatas, totaling 29 works in all.

  • Introduction to the Works of Giovanni Maria Bononcini
    G. M. Bononcini, 8 sonatas from Opus 6 (1672 and 1677) and Opus 9 (1675), ed. T. D. Dunn, 2019 Introduction The Composer and the Music Giovanni Maria Bononcini was born in Montecorone, near Modena, and was baptised on September 23, 1642.1 He studied in Modena with Marco Uccellini, and became proficient on the violin and violoncello da spalla. His earliest published works date from 1666 but it was only in 1675, two years after he became maestro di cappella of the Modena cathedral that his vocal music began to appear. His untimely death occurred on November 18, 1678. Of his eight children only two, Giovanni and Antonio, survived to adulthood. Both became notable composers. Along with the sonatas of Maurizio Cazzati, Bononcini’s sonate da chiesa mark a transition from the canzona to the multimovement sonata.2 There is less exploitation of instrumental virtuosity than in, say, the sonatas of Marco Uccellini, and more emphasis on compositional technique - a "predeliction for counterpoint" as one writer put it. Playfulness is also apparent, as in the abrupt endings of some of the sonatas. The first edition of Bononcini’s Opus 6 was printed in Venice in 1672 and was dedicated to (“Abbot and Count”) Giulio Camillo Campori. The “Al Lettore” section that follows the dedication is an important document in its own right for the history of performance practise in the seventeenth century. Here performers are admonished not to make extensive elaborations in the music or, even worse, rewrite entire passages. The addition of tasteful ornaments is acceptable, however.3 This letter to performers is missing in the second edition which was printed by Giacomo Monti in Bologna in 1677, the year before the composer’s death, and dedicated to Antonio Maria Padovani.
