The David Watkins Collection VOLUME XXI
Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741)
Sonata in C
for Violin (or Flute) & Harp with optional Cello part
Transcribed by David Watkins

Vivaldi was the most prolific of composers and very popular during his lifetime. J.S. Bach was fascinated by his energy and transcribed several of his compositions. Todaywe are captivated by his rhythmic vitality and descriptive creativity, most notably in his Four Seasons for violin and orchestra. I transcribed this beautiful Sonata from a Trio which was originally written for violin, lute and basso continuo. I found the Trio in 1961 when I was studying in Paris.
