This delightful and approachable arrangement is an ideal introduction to Corelli's compositional style. Representing four of the original five movements, this version begins with a rewarding Adagio before moving into a sprightly Allegro. The Grave that follows offers incredible opportunities to focus on phrasing before ending with the final, cheerful Allegro. Perform as a complete work or as separate movements for many options.
