Bologna
Elinor Frey and Patxi Montero suggest exchanges and hybrids of repertoire between cello and viola da gamba, two analog instruments that at the end of the Seventeenth Century competed for the primacy in the courts of France, England and Germany. The cello, an amazing invention by Emilian and Neapolitan instrumentalists, competed with the aristocratic viola da gamba and her characteristic vague sound. Thus, in the present programme, Bach's Cello Suite no.2 is performed by Patxi Montero on the viola da gamba, while Elinor Frey transposes Violin Partita no.2 on to the five-string cello. Johann Sebastian Bach Sonata BWV 1027 for viola da gamba (performed on the cello) Cello Suite n.6 BWV 1012 Cello Suite n.2 BWV 1007 (performed on the viola da gamba) Violin Partita n.2 BWV 1004 (performed on the cello) Sonata BWV 1028 for viola da gamba Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach Cembalo Sonata Wq.49/1, H.30 "Württemberg Sonata n.1"
