Benedetto Marcello (1686-1739) published his 12 flute sonatas Op. 2 in 1712 in venice. This was the first printed sheet music in Italy to prescribe exclusively the use of tfe flute. Marcello may have modelled his work on the sonata-cycle op. 5 by Corelli, which appeared in 1700. In this cycle Corelli summed up the possibilities of violin technique and the related compositional technique of his age. For his part, Marcello did the same for flutists. The flute sonatas soon became popular and have remained so ever since: three different editions have survived from the 18th century. The present edition (Z13476, Z13477) was produced by collating the three 18th-century sources.
