Alessandro Scarlatti
Lovers of Baroque vocal music will be interested to know that the Music Library has recently added to its collection scores for secular cantatas by George Frideric Handel and Alessandro Scarlatti in new editions from Garri Editions. These editions are notable, among other things, for leaving a staff blank for the continuo player to fill in his/her own realization of the figured bass.

The Music Library has just received a facsimile reprint edition of the Three Sonatas, op. 30 by Johann Baptist Cramer. Cramer is most well-known to pianists for his studies, published in two sets of 42 each in 1804 and 1810. These were known to and praised by Beethoven. However, the long-lived Cramer also published 117 sonatas. Duke has a number of sonatas by him in Rare Books, but the new reprint is the only set of sonatas by Cramer which circulates from the Music Library.
