Product Details


Product Description

This music was originally attributed to Giovanni Pergolesi, as they were in a Mr R. Bremner's original 1780 London publication and also arranged by Hugo Riemann, and again wrongly attributed to Giovanni Pergolesi.

It is actually made up of 3 different pieces: Gallo's 2nd Trio Sonata in Bb. Mvts I and III, and Trio Sonata No 8 in Eb

All 3 Gallo mvts were used by Igor Stravinsky in the 3rd mvt. "Scherzino"of his Neo Classical Pulcinella Suite. 

The Pulcinella Suite for small chamber orchestra and 3 vocalists which was derived from the ballet, was written in 1922 and has no vocal parts. 

But even though Stravinsky used "Pergolesi's"(which were in this case Gallo's) melodies and bass lines with little change, he managed to put his own unmistakable stamp on the music through his use of modern harmonies and occasional rhythmic modifications.

These are transcriptions of the original pieces, in their original keys.

They are interesting to play and  do not sound too dissimilar to Stravinsky's final work.


Arranged string trio with alternative violin 2 for viola.
