Giovanni Battista Vitali (1632 - 1692):  Corrente Quarta - Op. 1, No. 16
source: Correnti e balletti da camera a due violini. Op. 1 (Bologna 1666)
scoring: ATB (Bc)
All the pieces of this collection were thought to be played with a continuo realization. Usually, our arrangements do not include the continuo figures and the bass line is adapted for a bass recorder. In this case, I think the harmony is quite necessary: the three lines are simple and the beauty of this piece is almost completely based on its harmony.
By the way, Vitali was pupil of Maurizio Cazzati, but already in this first opus surpassed his teacher under any musical aspects.
As I said, the bass line is not suited for a bass recorder, since it must sound an octave below; nevertheless, the bass recorder can be used if the continuo is played by a harmonic instrument.

scoring: SSB (Bc ad libitum)
In my opinion, this piece demands a harmonisation of the bass. The figures of the continuo are my additions, as is their implementation. However, the harmonisation can be ignored.
The bass sounds very much like famous Italian Renaissance basses, but it cannot be strictly assimilated to any of them.

scoring: B (Bc)
This beautiful air by Richard Levederidge was conceived for a bass singer and continuo. As usual, the original print also contains a version of the melody transposed for treble recorder. In this case the recorder part is in the same key (G minor), but two octave above. Since the original part perfectly fits a bass recorder, I decided to dedicate this edition to that size of our instrument.
