The Concerto in E major by Pietro Antonio Locatelli is a work that is not among the authenticated compositions of the Bergamasque violinist and composer. It is not therefore included among the eight opus numbers known to date that were printed in Amsterdam under the author’s supervision; nor is it mentioned in any of the catalogues compiled by Locatelli himself. It is therefore a work attributed on the basis of documentary and stylistic considerations.
The musical text is derived from a single manuscript source preserved in Dresden, at the Sächsische Landesbibliothek; Locatellian authorship is attested by an annotation inscribed on the title page.

Stringendo Magazine (October 2023)
Locatelli looms large in the pantheon of great Italian composers such as Corelii, Vivaldi and Geminiani. Ut Orpheus‘s editorial policy is to avoid encumbering their texts with excessive or superfluous markings. Thus we have clean pages with only a few suggestions regarding expression marks and ornamentation given in square brackets. The clear full scores on five staves are very easy to read. ... Ut Orpheus‘s volumes contain everything you need to know about Locatelli and are books to be treasured in your library. (Mary Nemet)
