3VdG+Bc
The German composer Johann Michael Nicolai was an instrumentalist atthe Stuttgart court. His sonorous sonata in C-major for 3 bass viols, which has never before been published, is a major contribution to ther epertoire for this instrumentation. The third viol functions both as solo and bass instrument. Thus, the sonata can be played even if a keyboard instrument is not available.
