 Traditional Irish jig

This jig first appeared in Francis O'Neill's celebrated collection The Dance Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1907.

The phrase “one-horned cow” is sometimes used as a metaphor for a still, an apparatus for distilling alcoholic drinks.

Tune of the Day: Adagio by Weideman

 from Flute Sonata No. 2

Today we propose the opening Adagio from Carl Friedrich Weideman's second Sonata for flute and continuo, published around 1737.

Weideman was a German-born flutist and composer, about whom practically nothing is known prior to the year 1724, when he moved to London. Within a couple years, he became one of the city's leading flutists, and by 1750 he was flute instructor to the later king George III.

Many thanks to Federico for suggesting this piece!

Tune of the Day: Andante by Vivaldi

 from Concerto for Two Mandolins in G major, arranged for two flutes

The exact date of composition for the famous Concerto for two Mandolins in G major is unknown, but it is assumed that Vivaldi wrote it for the students at the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for abandoned children where Vivaldi worked from 1703 to 1740.

The middle Andante is arguably the most famous movement of the Concerto. It is in E minor, with the two mandolins performing throughout over just violins and violas played pizzicato and in unison. The graceful melody is built mostly of overlapping, echoing phrases, with the two soloists coming together only to intensify the emotion at certain points.
