Concerto Del Vivaldi / RV 390 in B minor (Autograph score)

For solo violin, strings and basso continuo I. Andante molto — Allegro non molto (0:00) II. Larghetto (6:21) III. Allegro molto (8:57) Composed: presumably not before 1734 Turin source: Foà 31 Concordance: 1:06 = RV 168 (1st movement) An introductory section was struck out at the beginning of the manuscript. The last folio, originally empty, was folded back to become the first folio; a title was inscribed on the front and a replacement initial section was notated on the back. A copy of the concerto was sold to count Vinciguerra di Collalto on 28 June 1741, merely a month before Vivaldi’s death; so probably a very late composition.
