Emy Bernecoli and Elia Andrea Corazza are proud to announce the first live recording of the rediscovered Sarabanda P015a by Ottorino Respighi.

The Sarabanda for violin and piano (P015a) is a short composition consisting of three pages dated 1897, here published for the first time. The original manuscript is part of the private archive of Potito Pedarra, cataloguer of Ottorino Respighi’s legacy.
Ottorino Respighi composed this work during his juvenile years, together with the Sonata in D minor (1897, P015), the Giga (P015b) and the Allegretto vivace (P015c), all of them for violin and piano.

This is a live recording of the composition based on its manuscript. It has been recorded during an Italian tour of the violinist Emy Bernecoli and the pianist Elia Andrea Corazza

The Sarabanda for violin and piano P015a has been published by the performers Elia Andrea Corazza and Emy Bernecoli for Schott GmBH. Here you can see and buy the score and the violin part.
