for Violin and Basso continuo

Sonatas 4-6

By his own choice, Nussen did not participate in public concert life, but there was nothing amateurish about his music, which unfailingly reveals excellent musical training, abundant inventiveness and a talent for combining new stylistic traits with old ones. His earliest published works, the six violin sonatas of 1749, are among the best of their kind to emerge in England half-way through the century.
