Description
Soprano voice, alto voice & basso continuo
SKU: HH.HH469-FSP
Composed by Agostino Steffani. Edited by Colin Timms. Soprano, Alto & Basso Continuo. Full score and parts. Edition HH Music Publishers #HH469-FSP. Published by Edition HH Music Publishers (HH.HH469-FSP).ISBN 9790708146803.
The humorous text of the duet refers to a madrigal and is redolent of Steffani’s wit. The chamber duet is the form by which the composer was best known, and La canzona is an accomplished example, displaying effortless counterpoint in the duet movement and technical ingenuity in the two solos, built on related ground basses. There are good reasons, therefore, for attributing this piece to Steffani.
