George Frideric Handel’s Concerto Grosso in G, Op. 6, No. 1, HWV 319 is a Baroque concerto grosso for solo violin within the Concerti Grossi, Op. 6 collection, also known as Twelve Grand Concertos, HWV 319-330.
This work is scored for strings, harpsichord continuo, solo violins, and solo cello. The instrumentation listed in the set is Str (2-2-2-1-1 in set), Hpchd (in set), Soli Vn(2), and Solo Vc. Two oboes were later added by Handel, and those are included in Kalmus number A7858, critical edition.
No. 1 in G Major, HWV 319, borrows from the overture of Handel’s Italian opera Imeneo and reworks it completely for the first movement. The fifth and final movement also quotes liberally from Domenico Scarlatti’s Keyboard Sonata in G Major, K. 2.
