This beautiful gigue is the fourth and final movement of Italian Baroque composer Arcangelo Corelli's Trio Sonata No. 7 in F major, published in 1685.
Thanks to Mario for contributing this piece!
Today's piece was kindly contributed to our collection by its composer, Peter Pope. It is called “Picasso's Dancers”, and is a miniature (in compressed sonatina form) which takes advantage of the flute's flexibility and attractiveness when played solo.
This old folk dance melody is thought to have originated in Ireland (where it is sometimes called “The Beginning of the World”), and became very popular in England in the 16th century. A “round” is a dance where the dancers form a circle. The tune continues to be used to this day by dance troops who perform English folk dances, including Morris and Maypole style dancing.
Thanks to Phil for suggesting this tune!
Today's piece is the second study from 40 Esercizi per Flauto (40 Exercises for Flute), Op. 101, by Italian flutist, composer and arranger Luigi Hugues.
This very popular melody dates back to at least 1657, when it was published in the supplement to the 3rd edition of John Playford's The Dancing Master as “Monk's March”.
The present arrangement for two flutes is taken from Blake's Young Flutist's Magazine, published in 1833.
This sarabande is the fifth movement of Amusement de Mars, a suite for solo instrument (“musette, vielle, flute and oboe” according to the original edition) and continuo by the French Baroque composer Nicolas Chédeville.
The title refers to the German town of Bermersheim, located near the Rhine river about 10 km north-west of Worms.
This Irish reel is taken from Chicago police officer Francis O'Neill's fine collection Waifs and Strays of Gaelic Melody, published in 1922.
