Silvius Leopold Weiss: The Dresden manuscript - Music for Two Lutes / Robert Bart & Kar-Ernst Schroder, lutes; Gaetano Nasillo, cello

Notes & Reviews:

Although today's lutenists are gradually bringing much of Silvius Leopold Weiss solo repertoire to the modern listener, his ensemble works have remained for the most part a mystery. The Dresden Manuscript consists of six volumes, the sixth of which contains Partitas by Weiss with 3 volumes of accompaniments. These "partien" are numbered 1 to 9, seven of them being lute parts to ensemble compositions of Weiss. Four of these Partien are labeled as lute duos, with three of them bearing a pencil remark stating that the missing lute part can also be found in an arrangement for harpsichord. These four Partien are the subject of this recording. Karl-Ernst Schroder reconstructed the lost part.
