Bartolomeo de Selma y Salaverde

Canzon 20 e 21 a doi soprani e basso continuo

Immerse yourself in the rich sounds of the early Baroque with the “Canzon 20 e 21 a doi soprani e basso continuo”. Both pieces are drawn from the celebrated collection “Canzoni, Fantasie et Correnti” by the Spanish Augustinian friar, enchanting listeners with their lively, fresh, and expressive character. The music thrives on the playful, contrapuntal dialogue between the two upper parts supported by a solid basso continuo foundation. Offering great instrumentation flexibility, these works can be performed with violins, transverse flutes, recorders, or cornetts, combined with organ, harpsichord, or lute and reinforced by viola da gamba, cello, or bass dulcian. Graded at an easy to intermediate level, this Pan Verlag edition (score and parts) is an excellent addition to chamber music ensembles, teaching studios, and concert stages.
