Strange d.g notation

Hi Conor,

 d.g. means viola di gamba (or cello), which sounds at the octave below.
(It appears that d.g. is missing from measures 70-71!).

Hello David and Pierre,

The instrument name is actually Viola da gamba (Viola) », so you’re probably 
right : the octaviation would be done only if one plays specifically the voila 
da gamba and not the modern alto.

Thanks for your help!

One clue is the end of the 8va bassa in the middle of bar 73. If this 
had the usual meaning, it would suggest a somewhat strange run with a 
leap of a seventh at one point.


The German for double stopping appears to be Doppelgriffen. Could 
this therefore be a German-Italian composite meaning col 8va bassa?

Well, not quite the same work.  This excerpt (from page 26 of the PDF)
looks like the second excerpt you posted.  A musicological mystery?

(Sorry about the image quality.)

It looks like a number of his quartets are available in manuscript or 18th
century editions at IMSLP.  Maybe this one is there.

This is certainly meant to apply in bar 73 only to the first five notes, 
which gives a leap of a sixth perfectly alright.
If this had the usual meaning, it would suggest a somewhat strange run 
with a leap of a seventh at one point.

In a viola part? With that fast notes? Certainly not.
