Sonata Duodecima by Isabella Leonarda Arranged for Soprano Saxophone and Piano
Sonata Duodecima by Isabella Leonarda from Sonate à 1.2.3. e 4. Istromenti, Op. 16
Arrangement for Soprano Saxophone and Piano by Michael Davis
At the age of 16, Isabella Leonarda (1620-1703) joined an Ursuline convent in Novara, Italy where she lived until her death. She was a prolific composer with over 200 works credited to her name, most of which were sacred vocal works. In 1693, Leonarda published a collection of twelve sonatas, the Sonate à 1.2.3. e 4. Istromenti, becoming the first woman to publish instrumental sonatas. The collection contains eleven trio sonatas (for violins and continuo), and one solo sonata (for violin and continuo). Sonata Duodecima refers to the twelfth sonata from the collection, which is the one for solo violin and continuo.
