Grove Music lists "10 sonatas a 4, fl, 2 vn, vc, bc; 2 sonatas a 5, fl, 2 vn, va, vc, bc: in Concerti di flauto, violini, violetta, e basso di diversi autori, 1725", so pending confirmation from a manuscript or first edition of these works, this might have originally been titled a "Sonata". Further, the cello part in the recording sounds like a continuo part, so the instrumentation would be flute, 2 violins, continuo, without the cello being a separate part. Therefore, both the work title and instrumentation may have to change, pending verification.
