Six Sonatas Issue 2, from Centone di Sonate, for violin and guitar

Edición de / Edited by: Schumacher, Kurt

12 of the 18 sonatas of the collection were released some time ago by Zimmermann in an edition by Susan Bulatoff. Zimmermann continue their series of Paganini works with the two new editions by Kurt Schumacher and thus completes the edition of the Centone di Sonate. Those Centone di Sonate are pieces in concerto form, most of which consist of 2 - 3 movements which show both instruments to their best advantage. The title Centone di Sonate (meaning colourful bouquet), however, was not invented by Paganini, but instead the 18 sonatas were divided into 3 booklets named Lettera A", ?Lettera B", ?Lettera C". It is assumed they were composed in Prague 1828 -1829. ZM 11190 refers to the first book and ZM 21240 to the second one. The pieces of book C are now contained in the books presented here. It consists of a score which is also the guitar part, as well as a violin part.
