Composed by Antonio Vivaldi. Edited by Bettina Hoffmann. This edition: urtext edition. Paperback. Barenreiter Urtext. Performance score, Set of parts, anthology. RV 39-47. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA06995. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA06995).ISBN 9790006520596. 12.2 x 9.57 inches. Preface: Bettina Hoffmann.
This scholarly-critical edition is based on all the known sources, whether printed or handwritten, that have come down to us for these frequently played pieces. By closely scrutinizing the source material, the editor has arrived at interesting findings that considerably differ from earlier editions of these works. Rather than taking as her principal source Le Clerc’s 1740 print of Sonatas I to VI – an edition probably made without the composer’s consent – the editor has examined the Naples and Wiesentheid manuscripts prepared under Vivaldi’s direct supervision.
The editor has also managed to identify a previously unknown source for Sonata RV 44. All departures from the sources in the printed text and all editorial additions are listed in the critical report. Cellists are thus given ready access to every alternative reading, including deleted bars and the many inevitable variants in articulation. A detailed preface provides essential information on sources and their assessment , with a section on performance practice offering valuable suggestions on interpretation.

Minimalist early music
This is some of Vivaldi's most elemental music, full of the characteristic sombre minor key sound that Vivaldi uses so often. It is almost minimalist, but with rich strong harmonies. I like how this edition enables you to pick the continuo line for a stripped down reading, enabling you to focus on the harmonies.
