Sonata in D minor for Oboe and Guitar

From the Publisher

Anne Danican-Philidor (1681-1728) came from a highly respected family of musicians. In 1702, he became an oboist with the Royal Musicians of the "Grande écurie" and chamber music, and in 1704 he was made oboist of the court orchestra. In 1725, he founded the Concert Spirituel which he conducted until 1727. The work presented here consists of five movements (Lentement, Fugue, Courante, Gracieusement and Fugue) and follows the style of French baroque music. For the guitar version, the editor added fingering and positions. On the enclosed part of the viola da gamba (violoncello) you will find the original figured bass which enables a guitarist experienced in continuo play to work out an individual figured bass. In 1994, Birgit Schmieder and Johannes Tappert recorded this sonata on CD.
