Bon, A :: Sei Sonate da Camera [Six Sonatas da Camera] Op. 1 - Volume 2

Furore Edition presents 'Sei Sonate da Camera [Six Sonatas da Camera] Op. 1 - Volume 2' for flute and piano by Anna Bon di Venezia. 

In 1756 – at the age of 16 – Anna Bon di Venezia made herself heard of for the first time with the publication of the six sonatas for flute op. 1. This second volume comprises the sonatas four to six from the op. 1.

Each sonata is in three movements: a fast centre movement is framed by a slow introduction and a slow closing movement. This formal pattern shows more German than Italian influence. Stylistically, the sonatas are best perhaps comparable to works by J. J. Quantz and C. Ph. E. Bach, musicians at the Prussian court of Frederick the Great, where Anna Bon stayed as a child.

Contents: Sonate IV (D); Sonate V (g); Sonate VI (G)
