6 Sonaten op. 13 »Il pastor fido« - Chédeville, Nicolas 1705-1782; Vivaldi, Antonio 1678-1741; Linde, Hans-Martin 1930-; Melkus, Eduard 1928- (1972)
Nicolas Chédeville made a secret agreement in 1737 with Jean-Noël Marchand to publish a collection of his own compositions as Vivaldi's. Chédeville supplied the money and received the profits, all of which was attested to in a notarial act by Marchand in 1749. Long attributed to Vivaldi, the set of sonatas are actually the work of Chédeville.
