The Scoring of Baroque Concertos
ISBN: 9781843830719 / Angielski / Twarda / 295 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The author surveys the evidence, from surviving printed and manuscript performance material, from concerts throughout Europe between 1685 and 1750 (the heyday of the concerto), demonstrating that concertos were nearly always played...
