From the publisher: “For 3 viole da gamba or 2 viole da gamba and basso continuo, edited as new edition and facsimile by Günter and Leonore von Zadow. These sonatas for three violas da gamba number among the most important and well-known works for this formation, whose distinctive feature is the pleasant, sonorous, and harmonically rich sound of the three bass instruments. Included in our edition are the facsimiles of the sources from Durham Cathedral Library, so that anyone can reconsider our editorial decisions.”
