The Centre de musique baroque de Versailles publishes Michel Corrette’s Concerto opus XXVI no. 1. The complete opus is aimed at organists and harpsichordists and offers them different formulas for playing in concert with the strings: one, two or three violins, violin and cello... This No. 1 thus creates a dialogue between one violin and harpsichord, accompanied by an ensemble of strings. Organists will be able to play the harpsichord part at the expense of minimal adaptations. The two soloists are accompanied by a small instrumental string ensemble consisting of two violins, one viola and cello. The concerto unfolds in four movements: Allegro, Aria prima, Aria seconda, both in gavotte tempo, ending with an Allegro.
The set of parts consists of one part per instrument.
