Description:
Parts , Stimmen of Overture in G major Entrata per la Musica di Tavola GWV 453 for Strings and Basso continuo
The Entrata GWV 453 may have been composed between 1730 and 1735 and is scored for string ensemble only, like approximately half of the overture suites. Given the unassuming and simple scoring, the compositional and atmospheric variety offered by Graupner in these four movements is remarkable. It ranges from an exceedingly expressive opening movement dominated by suspensions in the overture with its contrapuntally conceived outer sections to a Gavotte en Rondau as the closing movement. The latter could not sound any more worldly and folk-like, if not humorous with its emphasis on driving semitones in the first and second violins – not unlike music heard at a large fair.
