PET 4635 106 37.00 Concerto in E-flat Major, K. 171 Through the ages, the bass has gone through many flavors of tuning; the Dittersdorf concerto was written during an interlude where the bass was most often a three-stringed instrumented with an A-D-A tuning (B-E-B in solo tuning). I mention this because going back to that perfect-fourth and perfect-fifth tuning makes this piece much, much easier, turning it from a piece that seems more challenging than it's worth into a light-hearted, witty concerto in E-Major.

It's a fun romp across the positions, with catchy melodies and a lot of energy shot into the first and third movements. The second movement is a pleasant contrast, full of lyricism and expression. The concerto is fun to play, and can also serve as an intro d u ction into harmonics for younger playe rs.

It is a moment captured from the Bel Canto era, when all focus was placed on a player's virtuosity and expressiveness, above all other musical considerations. The result is an intensely lyrical concerto that will stretch the capabilities of any performer.
