TELEMANN, Georg Philipp (1681-1767)
Telemann, Trio Sonata in G-major for Violin, Violoncello, and Basso, TWV 42:G7, V+Vc+Bc, full score, 2nd full score with realization.
The present Trio Sonata has not been published until now, which is probably due to the unconventional scoring, since Telemann employed the violoncello here in a soloistic manner and not, as was usual, merely as a bass instrument. The two solo parts display the strong influence of the Italian style and are clearly idiomatic for the violin and cello, respectively. Thanks to the progressing chords divided into rapid sixteenth notes, this sonata displays a very full sound and has a joyful and festive character reminiscent of Corelli.
