Tune of the Day: Largo by Handel
from Violin Sonata in E major
This Largo is the third movement of a sonata for violin and basso continuo in E major, HWV 373, first published in 1730. It was originally thought to have been composed by George Frideric Handel, but modern scholars consider this doubtful, and have labelled it as “spurious”.
