Sonata in D minor Violoncello and Basso continuo

Sonata for Violoncello and Basso continuo D minor op. XIII/4
Fesch, Willem de (1687-1757) ,the Dutch composer,like his contemporary Handel,lived in London for many years,is known above all for his chamber music for stringed instruments.This sonata is the most charming of his six sonatas op 13 for violoncello and basso continuo.Its limped structure and use of the positions best suited to the cello amply document de Fesch’s knowledge of stringed instruments.
