Thread: [Fasch] Concerto identification?

Hello,

I once owned a recording of Konrad Ragossnig performing Guitar Concerto in D minor with the Southwest German Chamber Orchestra by Johann Friedrich Fasch. Now, knowing that Fasch didn't likely compose for the guitar, was this piece for the lute and, if so, what was the original name of the concerto?

I searched for Concerto in D Minor for lute but came up empty handed. The concerto, I'm thinking, was perhaps transposed to the guitar-friendly key of D minor. Not knowing German has hindered my search, also.

I've attached a MIDI file of what I remember from the guitar's line -- the tempo is likely off.

Any help identifying this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you, Handel. I found that also. A little more research and I should find the piece.

Thanks again,

Found it. Sure enough it's Concerto in D Minor: Allegro Moderato (track 11).

i love this concert too much
