Program Notes
This work is likely an arrangement of Sonata pian' e forte written by Giovanni Gabrieli, in 1597. It bears the designation Ch. 175. This is the earliest known piece of music to call for specific brass instruments.
“Sonata pian’e forte” means an instrumental piece using soft and loud dynamics. A more technical definition of this is a Venetian polychoral style which arose from architectural peculiarities with regards to St Mark's Basilica. Sonata (at this time) means a piece for instruments. It was probably written to be played as part of a Catholic service at St Mark's, Venice. It was written for 8 instruments divided into 2 groups of 4 and placed in opposing galleries in the cathedral.
