(Chedeville)
IL PASTOR FIDO by Nicolas Chedeville attributed to Antonio Vivaldi Six Sonatas for Recorders or other high instruments & Basso Continuo. Published in the late 1730s as Op 13 by Vivaldi, it took 250 years to discover the great deception that the work was really by Chedeville, who hoped to profit from the Parisian public's love of Vivaldi's music. In order to impart a Vivaldian flavor to the music he used 16 musical fragments from Vivaldi's works. Chedeville shows that he possessed a thorough knowledge of the style that he opted to imitate. Some of the original movements prove him to be a composer of considerable talent. The fugue in Sonata VI is superb. Five of the Sonatas are for Alto, one is for Soprano. This is an URTEXT edition with a 62-page score, 27-page Recorder part, & 28-page Basso Continuo Part. The Preface is 16 pages. A pleasure to play! Photo |
