Vivaldi, A. - Sonata No. 6 in G Minor, Op. 13, RV 59, Mvt. 2 (Violin Duo)

Antonio Vivaldi (1675-1741) was an Italian priest, violinist and composer, well-known in his day for the both his violin virtuosity and the many concertos, trio sonatas and other works that he composed. This piece is a movement of one of a group of six sonatas written for treble instrument and cembalo.This lively duo for two violins is equally interesting for both parts, and easily accessible for advanced intermediate students, amateurs and professionals. A few chromatic passages, and some syncopation make this fun for all.
