This jig appears to be unique to Francis O'Neill's early-20th-century collections Music of Ireland (1903) and The Dance Music of Ireland (1907), both published in Chicago, where O'Neill was working as Police Captain.
Today we propose étude No. 29 from Italian Romantic composer Giuseppe Gariboldi's collection of 30 Etudes faciles et progressives.
Here is the fourth duet in E minor from the 55 Easy Pieces by Baroque composer Joseph Bodin de Boismortier. The French title “L'Indiscrète” means “The Indiscreet One”.
It's been a while since we last posted a Telemann Fantasia, so here we are.
Telemann's Fantasia No. 4 for Solo Flute is in the key of B-flat major. It is structured like a “modern” sonata in three movements, slow-fast-fast. More precisely, it starts with an Andante which has many jumps between the first and second register, then switches to a triple-time Allegro, and finally ends on a Presto in da capo form.
This jig first appeared in Francis O'Neill's collection Music of Ireland, published in 1903. O'Neill's source for the tune was Chicago Police Sergeant and fiddler James O'Neill (no relation), originally from County Down in Ireland.
This light and fast 4/8-time piece is the twelfth étude from Sigfried Karg-Elert's 30 Caprices: a “Gradus ad Parnassum” of the modern technique for flute solo.
This is the second movement of an A-minor sonata composed by Jean-Baptiste Loeillet around 1710. The sonata, originally written for recorder and continuo, has been arranged for two flutes.
