Sonata V for Violin & Harp Sonata V for Violin & Harp
Carl Friedrich Abel

This Sonata for violin and harp is taken from the "Music Remains" of Edward Jones.The simplicity of the sonata belies its musical impact and the rhythmic writing for the violin is often symphonic in structure. I am grateful to Dr Mike Parker for giving me a copy of the original score for violin and harpsichord to which, for a concert in 2011, I added the string quartet accompaniment (see Volume XIVa)
