Question

Leopold Godowsky’s heavily virtuosic incomplete solo piano transcription of three of these pieces followed a complete effort by Joachim Raff. Joseph Joachim recommended that Clara Schumann burn a complete piano accompaniment to these pieces by her husband. (10[1])The “Westphal” and “Kellner” manuscripts are often cited as authoritative in preparing editions of these pieces, along with that of the composer’s wife Anna (10[1])Magdalena. The galanteries (10[2])of these six-movement pieces, (10[1])which transition between minuet, bourree, (10[1])and gavotte, (10[2]-5[1])are the only (10[1])structural (10[1])differences between them. The D major sixth of these pieces was written for an instrument (10[1])with five strings. (10[1]-5[2])These (10[1]-5[1])solo pieces were considered studies until the 20th century, (10[2])when Pablo (10[1])Casals (10[1])began to perform (10[1])them. (10[1])For 10 points, name these six large-scale works for solo string instrument by a Baroque (-5[1])composer. (0[1])■END■ (10[3])
