Balletti Correnti Gighe E Sarabande Op 1

Balletti Correnti Gighe E Sarabande Op 1

Each of these unique sonatas consists of four movements in the same sequence: balletto, corrente, giga and sarabanda â€“ four favorite dance forms of the Baroque. The composer Bassani (ca. 1647-1716) worked back and forth in the musical establishments of Ferrara and Bologna. His Op. 1 "sonatas" are really instrumental suites. His decision to end each one with a sarabanda was not followed by subsequent performers, almost all of whom preferred the giga as a conclusion. Ensemble Armonico Cimento is one of Italyâ€™s numerous successful Early Music groups, with members drawn from the famous Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, the Royal College of Music in London, and the Ã‰cole de Musique Ancienne in Geneva, Switzerland.
