Description

Six Sonatas for Violin and Viola

Hob. VI Nos. 1-6

The title "Solo per il Violino" which Haydn gave these sonatas in his Entwurf-Katalog (the handwritten catalogue he maintained of his own works), already gives us an indication: it is only the violin which is treated as a solo instrument in these six sonatas; the viola has an accompanying role. Haydn might have written these soli for himself; but they also might have been for Luigi Tomasini, the first violinist at Esterházy's court.

Today these duos enjoy great popularity, particularly for teaching purposes. The publisher is proud to present the definitive Henle edition following the text in the Complete Edition of Haydn's Works, along with the addition of specially composed cadenzas.

Edited by Andreas Friesenhagen and Ulrich Mazurowicz. With cadenzas by Kurt Guntner. Includes score and parts.
