Abstract EN

This study is devoted to defining the musical instrument Arpeggione and Sonata A minor (Arpeggione) created for this instrument.

The Arpeggione is an extinct instrument; its extinction was related to many factors such as the instrument’s design and the capability of other similar instruments.

The musical instrument Arpeggione is a mixture of the cello and the classical guitar.

The body, the fretted fingerboard and the tuning method is a very similar to the guitar, but the way it is held and played reminds of the cello.

A minor (Arpeggione) sonata is the only work written for Arpeggione musical instrument by the German composer Franz Schubert.

Since the instrument no longer exists, this composition has been turned to other possible musical instruments sush as the cello or the double bass.

In this study is a comparison between Arpeggione and the other similar musical instruments.
