notes
Although the title page names the viol with apparent reference to the entire work, an independent part for the viol is found only in this Sonata III. à quatre parties.
The sonata itself has no instrumental indication which however can be inferred from the title page of the edition, only considering that in some movement the second part is too low for the flute.
