Product Specs
It was probably Vinzenz Schuster, who inspired Schubert to compose the sonata in a-minor. Anyhow, it was this viennese musician, who premiöred this opus in 1824. And one year later, the latter was the author of an "Instruction to Learn the Guitar-Violoncello newly invented by Mr. Georg Staufer".
This Instrument is held between the knees like the cello and is also played with a bow, however, on the fingerboard it is provided with frets like the guitar. Strangely enough, Schubert, and abviously only he, called it "Arpeggione". This is the reason why the name remained well-known while the Instrument, which it denoted, was forgotten soon after its invention.
Already the first edition was equipped with parts for violin and cello. Viola-players also took up the opus. With increasing expressional differentiation of flute-playing on the modern Instrument, the flutists discovered a welcome and ambitious possibility to enlarge their repertoire by the "Arpeggione Sonata". This edition would like to offer assistance here.
To this edition we have enclosed a revisions report (flute part page 2 „Annotations to Edition and Arrangement").
