product description

for cello solo, 2 violins, viola & b. c., edited as urtext edition by Markus Möllenbeck with a piano reduction by Ulrich Lüdering. Series Il Violoncello concertato

The editor has so far published 12 of Vivaldi's cello concertos in critical editions: RV 398 (in C), 401 (in c), 405 (in d), 409 (in e), 410 (in F), 413 (in G), 414 (in G), 417 (in g), 418 (in a), 419 (in a), 424 (in b), 531 (in g for 2 VC)

For a long time, no performance material was available that met source-critical standards.

The present concerto, RV 398, was probably originally conceived by Vivaldi as a violin concerto—like RV 419 and RV 424. Overall, the cantabile element of this work is subdued in favor of the rhythmic element, as demonstrated by semiquavers, triads, and ostinato repetitions, especially in the first movement. The second movement, accompanied only by basso continuo, is, unlike almost all other cello concertos, composed in a single movement and, surprisingly, contains all the rhythmic figures of the outer movements.

Range of the solo part: C - e1, medium difficulty

the strings in the set of parts: Solo-2-2-1-2 Bassi

CD recordings by soloists as Sol Gabetta, Christophe Coin, Raphael Wallfisch and others
