Chaconne: Two in One Upon a Ground String Duet - Digital Sheet Music

Instrumental Duet, Keyboard, Viola da gamba - Level 3 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.1897007

Composed by Henry Purcell (1659-1695). Arranged by Daniel Rippe. This edition: pdf. Baroque, Chamber, Early Music, Historic. 7 pages. Daniel Rippe - RipMeister Publications #1455476. Published by Daniel Rippe - RipMeister Publications (A0.1897007).

A haunting melody in canon between the bass viol (viola da gamba) and keyboard is played over a descending "ground" (repeating bassline).

From Purcell’s tragicomic semi-opera “The Prophetess, or The History of Dioclesian” (London, 1690), this beautiful canon over a ground was originally for two recorders and basso continuo. Here, we have a duet for a bass viola da gamba with the other canonic part in the keyboard player’s right hand, making a true duo for viol and keyboard (harpsichord or organ). A few editorial fingerings are included.

A minor - Keyboard score on three pages. Bass viol part on two pages.
