The A minor sonata B.A3 can be found in Tartini's manuscript in http://imslp.org/wiki/26_Violin_Sonatas ... iuseppe%29, pp. 94-95, as part of the unnumbered sketches and pieces at the end.

Is that the same volume of 26 sonatas (" Le Opere di Giuseppe Tartini. Vol. XX1b : Le Sonate... by Giuseppe Tartini
Le Opere di Giuseppe Tartini. Vol. XX1b : Le Sonate del Volume Autografe per violino solo "Ad libitum" (24-26 e Sonate senza numero)") edited by Farina for Carisch back in 1989? It lists A3 (a published sonata, part of either Op.1 or Op.4?) but not a3 among its contents... http://www.worldcat.org/title/opere-di- ... /496037578

I guess so, for it is definitely the same collection as far as the 26 numbered sonatas are concerned. Perhaps the catalogue contains an error (A3 for a3; I made the same error in my previous post ...).
BTW I noticed that the manuscript contains earlier sketches of B.a3 on pp. 87 and 89.

hrm. may want to mention the 1989 publication on that IMSLP page even though relevance to copyright is probably limited...

I was able to consult volume XXIb of Le Opere di Giuseppe Tartini, and the sonata in A minor (B a3) is indeed there. Its main base is the Padua manuscript (1888-1 of the Archivio musicale della Cappella Antoniana in Padova) a scan of which is found in IMSLP, but some other sources have been used as well by Farina. Farina calls the sonata together with d3 "senza dubbio le più importanti dell'ultima parte del ms.1888 di Padova".

The volume contains the following 8 sonatas: 24 (D4); 25 (d2); G5 (26 [not numbered in ms. 1888); B2 (in Bb major; based on sketches on pp. 32-33 of ms. 1888); A2 (p. 90 plus some sketches elsewhere in ms. 1888); a3 (the A minor sonata [the English translation of Farina's notes has the error "A3"]; the final version is on pp. 94-96 in ms. 1888, plus some sketches elsewhere and two copies in other sources); d3 (pp. 97-98 in ms. 1888, plus material as for Sonata a3); e3 (based on p. 106 in the ms. 1888 [the Italian version of Farina's note has the error "a3"]; Farina put the Presto at the end and completed a variation).

The volume further contains 6 isolated movements and a "canzonetta", all taken from ms. 1888.

In conclusion: the WorldCat entry (BTW taken over from the British Library [http://explore.bl.uk/primo_library/libw ... 1015044615]) lists "Brainard. D4, d2, G5, B2, A2, A3, d3, e3, E7a-b, A29b"; that should be "Brainard D4, d2, G5, B2, A2, a3, d3, e3, E7a-b, G5/5, G5/6, G5/6a, A29b; canzonetta".
