  The "MAGISTER"

The great book realized by FRANCO PETRACCHI. Imho the best book ever written for what concerning the Thumb Position. HR

In Bottesini's opinion these studies were impossible to play. Today it's possible thanks to Franco Petracchi technique. Every study is fingered and bowed by Maestro Petracchi.

A very good challange. HR

A great book with Mr. Petracchi's fingerings

Stefano Sciascia

"The legends about this concerto say it's Nanny's work, not Dragonetti's. This work has nothing to do with other Dragonetti's works and it's not among the Drag's manuscripts in the British Museum's library."

 

 Here maestro Sciascia has recorded in first absolute the " authentic" Concert in Amajor for db. and "strings" (more two bassons and two horns) by Domenico Dragonetti (no.3).

About the other concerto "more famous" I have some doubts about the real composer: surely he was a work by E. Nanny.
