Six Violin Sonatas, op. 2 nos. 1-6

Album by Antonio Vivaldi & Elizabeth Wallfisch & Richard Tunnicliffe & Malcolm Proud

Six Violin Sonatas, Op. 2 Nos. 1-6 is a set of six violin sonatas by Antonio Vivaldi, published in 1709. The collection exemplifies the early 18th-century Venetian Baroque style, featuring contrasting slow and fast movements, idiomatic and virtuosic violin writing with continuo accompaniment, and represents an early stage in Vivaldi's development of concertante textures that informed his later larger-scale works.
