NOTES on Vivaldi Opus 1 - Trio Sonatas I - XII 
                          (Oct. 9, 2009) 

    Estienne Roger Marchand Libraire No. 363, Amsterdam [facsimile] 

      The facsimile had a light double bar between movements, but in 
    movements where there are repeats (i.e. No. 1, Mvts. 2, 4, & 5) 
    their repeat signs are like our heavy double bars.  At the end 
    of movements where the second part was to be repeated there was 
    a heavy ":|:" and there was also a light double bar to end the 
    movement.  Our usual light-heavy double bar were used to end 
    movements.  Adagio movements were treated differently depending 
    on their function in the Sonata, and the way they were notated in 
    the Roger fascimile.  The Adagios in Sonatas I & III came between 
    movements strongly in G Minor & C Major respectively and were     
    considered separate movements, even though the Adagio in III was 
    only 4 measures long.  In Sonata IV the Allegro preceeding the 
    Adagio didn't come to a cadence but morphed into the Adagio with 
    only the normal single bar and finally came to a cadance 7 meas. 
    later so was not considered a movement on its own. 

      The old "+", "x" figured bass notations in Roger were replaced 
    by the easier to read "#" as a figure or an addition to a figure. 
    When "/" & "\" crossed through numbered figures modifying their 
    function, we modified the numbers with a "#" "b" or a natural, as 
    was appropriate - hopefully clarifying the reading of the figures.  
    (The "/" through the figure "7" actually looks like a flat and 
    acts like one, i.e. - No. 1, Mvt. 1, meas.3 & Mvt.4, meas.9.  
    The "\" through the figure "6" acts like a "#" here for Roger 
    frequently uses "6b","5b", & "4b", i.e. -  No. 1, Mvt.2 m.17-18.  
    A "\" in conjunction with a 5 or a 9 doesn't print. (No. 2 Giga) 

    SONATA V in F Major, RV 69 

      Movement 1 - Preludio, Largo (C) 
        Meas. 8 - Vn.1 - Roger has no natural on the next to last 
          but it was implied in the harmonic progressions that was 
          going on.  An EDITORIAL natural was entered. 
        Meas. 9 - Basso continuo - There was not a flat on the B3 in 
          Roger but it was implied for harmonic reasons, (as in m.8).  
        Fermatas in all parts in Roger at the end of this movement. 

      Movement 2 - Allemanda, Presto (C) 
        Meas. 21 - Vc. and Bc. - The Roger ed. was cramped here and 
          started the "Piano" below the 1st quarter & ended it just 
          before the last quarter.  Musically is seems logical that 
          it was intended to come after the cadence on the 1st beat.  
          Made a note in the file but not an editorial accidental.  
        No fermatas in Roger at the end of this movement.  

      Movement 3 - Corrente, Allegro (3/4) 
        Fermatas in all parts in Roger at the end of this movement. 

      Movement 4 - Gavotta, Presto (C) 
        The Roger ed. had an extra half note at the end in the Vc.  
          and Bc. part.  There is a slur across the :|: from the 
          beginning of the last measure and including the half  
          note at the end, which may be an old way of notating a 
          second ending.  1st and 2nd endings were added. 
        No fermatas in Roger at the end of this movement.
