VITALI Chaconne in G minor @ChloeChuaviolinist

This Chaconne in G minor for violin and continuo is traditionally attributed to the Italian composer Tomaso Antonio Vitali (1663 –1745). A Dresden manuscript that may have been transcribed in the early 18th century is the earliest known version, but it was not published until 1867 when German violinist-composer Ferdinand David (1810–1873) arranged it for violin and piano, embellishing the violin part with additional challenges requiring virtuoso techniques. It was also David who gave the composition the title “Chaconne”. This, along with its stylistic dissimilarities with Vitali’s other music, caused musicologists to doubt the origin of the work. The Chaconne features a continuo part, played on the organ in this performance. Above it, the violin soloist tackles increasingly complex variations on the theme. There are several abrupt changes in the key between variations, atypical of other chaconnes from the Baroque era. At his American debut recital at Carnegie Hall in 1917, Jascha Heifetz played this Chaconne and subsequently performed it as part of his regular concert repertoire.
