Summary/Abstract: In the field of chamber music, Haendel is known for his six Sonatas for violin and basso continuo op. 1, creations that have kept a well-deserved place in the violin repertoire, being approached mainly for their melodic cantability, the clarity of the formal structures and the moderate technical difficulty. At G. Fr. Handel's sonata genre is distinguished by the characteristic unity of the thematic material, which bears the perfect mark of mastery. His sonatas are characterized by the breadth of the melodic line, the precise construction of the harmony and the generous sonority.
