Violin Sonatas op. 5, Nos. 1-6

Album by Arcangelo Corelli & Lucy van Dael & Bob van Asperen

Violin Sonatas, Op. 5, Nos. 1-6 is a set of six violin sonatas by Arcangelo Corelli, published in 1700. The sonatas exemplify the Italian Baroque style with elegant violin lines over figured bass, balanced tonal architecture and a mixture of dance-like and contrapuntal movements, and they occupy an important place in Corelli's output and in the development of violin technique and the sonata form around the turn of the 18th century.
First released: November 2004
