"When Boccherini wrote his 'Sei Sonate per Forte-Piano, con accompagnato di un violino op. 5', it is possible that he was unaware of his imminent journey to Spain where he would settle and become hispanicized to the point of being considered, for all posterity, one of its most representative musicians of the latter 18th century. The youthful 24-year-old Boccherini, abundantly talented instrumentalist and equally active composer...arrived in Paris in 1767, overflowing with ideas and ambition. He was soon brought into contact with the exquisite and influential social circles which provided the musical setting for the brilliant Mme. Brillon de Jouy. Possibly one of the most outstanding performers of her day, according to Charles Burney, she possessed a perfect technique, an excellent sense of taste when playing the fortepiano as well as the harpsichord, was a skilled sight-reader and composer and even displayed talent in the arts of drawing and engraving. Undoubtedly out of gratitude for her favors and support, in 1768 Boccherini composed the 'Sonatas op. 5', originally for fortepiano and violin, as is revealed by the autograph manuscript kept in Parma, but published in February of 1769 by the Parisian editor Vénier as 'Sei sonate di cembalo e violino obbligato.'
Achieving immediate and enormous popularity, these charming pieces were written for two instruments with which Boccherini was familiar but did not himself master. The result is a mixture of, on the one hand, sincerity and spontaneity, as is always the case with Boccherini's music, even in his most artful moments, and on the other, a somewhat forced quality in their form and technical structure. This is not by any means to say that these sonatas are formally unsatisfactory; if anything characterizes Boccherini, before and after his Spanish 'conversion', it is his great talent for idiomatic part writing, so that the instrumentation fits the music like a glove. In these sonatas, Boccherini, perhaps because of the dedicatee's abilities at the keyboard and the virtuosity of André-Noël Pagin (a much sought after violinist, disciple of Tartini and assiduous concertising partner of Mme. Brillon), seems unconcerned with the technical problems of either instrument, emphasizing instead the free flight of musical discourse, the beautiful and unique melodies (which anticipate the insuperable Boccherini of the Spanish quintets), the fluid and atypical harmonies." - Emilio Moreno (trans.

Boccherini's Music heals the Soul. Even if so many bad Things have happened.
Bella música y lindas y relajadas las ranitas
Brilliant...........Bravo Boccherini.
Meraviglia delle meraviglie!
Great artwork with beautiful music... thank you!
BRAVO
Boccherini reste pour moi le plus baroqueux des classiques
Boccherini non era né barocco né classico (né romantico ovviamente)
blagodaram.
Cuanto color,espacio y acentos....!!!!!!! belleza de instrumentos y ejecutantes
Bravissimi!!
Very nice, thanks for sharing with all!👏🎶😊
clicked like for the frogs
hilarious！
Jolly :)
Love the music, love the picture. Barroque or classical?
Classical... Luigi Boccherini lived in the years 1743-1805...
Rococo ;3
In between: not baroque anymore, and not yet classical. As far as I know, even admiring Haydn a lot and liking him personally, Boccherini never used the classical Sonatenhauptsatzform, right?
Poor little froggies!
Love the music - ugly frogs
Ah here...what have frogs got to do with this?
They're saying, "Holy sh.. that's great music. I'm knocked out!"
'Oh what's frogs got to do, got to do with it
What's frogs but a second hand emotion.
What's frogs got to do, got to do with it
Who needs a frog
When a frog can be broken'
frogs zijn ook mooi en bijzonder evenals deze muziek
(and why not ? alle kunst is vrij )
the actually look like a drawing in the style of Mutis of other scientists of the time
The bottom part of the violin bow where the violinists holds it is called the frog.
Genial la armonía que consigue el violín con el clavecín.Lo único que no me gustó fueron los sapos.Están fuera de lugar.
