The genre of the violoncello concerto was born in 17th-century Italy.

Thanks to the Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741), there exists today not only a wealth of magnificent violin concertos but also quite a number of cello concertos to whose development he contributed considerably.

More than two dozens of his concertos are dedicated to the violoncello, including the probably most famous double concerto: the Concerto for two violoncellos, string orchestra and basso continuo in G minor (RV 531) written after 1770.

The sonorous work with its playful outer movements and expressive largo is published in this critical new edition on the basis of the sources. Instrumentation:2 cellos, string orchestra and basso continuoRV 531, PV 411, F III/2
