Die
Gambensonaten von Johann Sebastian und
Carl
Philipp Emanuel Bach
It seems
surprising that both Johann Sebastian and his son Carl Philipp Emanuel composed
sonatas for viola da gamba, as the instrument had largely been displaced by the
violoncello in the eighteenth century. Whereas one of the three sonatas by the
elder Bach originally existed as a triosonata and was only later arranged for
instrument and obbligato cembalo, all three sonatas by the younger Bach are
original compositions. Two early sonatas are scored for viol and basso
continuo; the later one—like his fatherÕs sonatas—is a trio for
viol and obbligato keyboard instrument. The study investigates the
juxtaposition of reminiscences toward his fatherÕs compositions with regard to
texture and elements of the galant style in the sonatas for viola da gamba by
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach.
