notes

From the booklet: “In Italy the “scrittura a quattro” (four-part writing) has been established with the late seventeenth century Concerto but took several different directions in the eighteenth century through the “concertino a quattro” carried out by composers such as B. Galuppi, GB Sammartini, G. Tartini, the “sonate a quattro” by T. Albinoni and F. Durante, and also appearing in some symphonies to be played “senza cimbalo” (without harpsichord) by A. Scarlatti, who composed with rigorous imitative writing among the four parts. …”
