Six Cello Sonatas

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Christophe Coin & Christopher Hogwood

Six Cello Sonatas is a collection of six sonatas for cello and basso continuo by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1740. The works exemplify Baroque chamber writing with virtuosic solo lines, expressive slow movements and dance-like finales, and occupy a place in Vivaldi's output as contributions to the solo cello repertoire of the late Baroque period.
First released: 1989
