Garofalo
New York, former private collection Garofalo,

Provenance and Date: Early 18c
Time Frame: 1700-1800
Notes: This manuscript, probably dating from the early eighteenth century, was acquired “from an intinerant second-hand bookseller” by the noted composer and conductor Carlo Giorgio Garofalo (1886-1962), and passed on to his son Marcello Garofalo, who in 1983 sold it to the antiquariat of Wurlitzer-Bruck. Its present location is unknown, but Marcello Garofalo still possesses a photocopy of the manuscript. In his 1922 article, Carlo Giorgio Garofalo described the content of the manuscript as containing “27 fughe a 3 e 4 voci, una Sonata col flautina in la maggiore, un’Elevazione in sol minore, [e] 19 canzoni, in capo all prima delle quali leggasi Canzone P.a Frescobaldi.” Marcello Garofalo very kindly placed at our disposal a partial photocopy of the MS (beginning with the alleged Frescobaldi canzonas on p. 57), as well as a copy of an edition that his father had prepared for publication, but which was never published. Among the 19 canzonas are copies of F 4.08, F 10.02, and F 10.11. The other 16 canzonas are not known from other sources. F 16.51 and F 16.62 through F 16.66 might be by Frescobaldi; the others are likely of a later vintage.
