In order to fulfill this claim I took a close look at the character of the individual works in order to work it out particularly through the instrumentation. Sonata I and III are accompanied by a chest organ, whereby the pieces themselves create great contrasts: Sonata I is a very soft, restrained work with a lot of chromaticism, Sonata III on the other hand shines with many fanfare-like figurations. Sonata IV leaves a lot of room for improvisation on a harpsichord, Sonata V is very equal in treble and bass and requires a string bass combined with the keyboard instrument. The decision was made to use a very contoured and transparent-sounding instrument: the violoncello da spalla.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sonata VI remembers of a very festively radiant piece for trumpet. Clearly an organ is perfect for the accompaniment. To support the percussive character of the bass line we‘ve added a baroque guitar here. Probably the most unusual line-up on this CD can be heard in Sonata II. It needs radiance in the first half and a special, sparkling color for the dance movements. Here the bass is performed by an regal, a very special color in combination with the oboe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Musicaphon","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49607701856536,"sku":"4012476569956","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4230868-3141178.jpg?v=1777516726","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/bronnemuller-sonatas-ariettas","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
