This is the sixth duet in E minor from the 55 Easy Pieces by Baroque composer Joseph Bodin de Boismortier. The French title “Le Petit Maître” might be translated as “The Little Master”.
“Os pintinhos no terreiro" (which translates as “The Chicks in the Yard”) is a famous Brazilian choro composed by Zequinha de Abreu in 1932. Much like his world-famous “Tico-Tico no Fubá”, this piece features a fast, “hopping” melody that mimics the quick movements of little chicks scratching around a farmyard.
Thanks to Bruno for suggesting this tune!
This minor-mode jig is taken from Chicago Police captain Francis O'Neill's collection The Dance Music of Ireland, published in 1907.
This étude in articulation is the eleventh piece from Sigfried Karg-Elert's 30 Caprices: a “Gradus ad Parnassum” of the modern technique for flute solo.
This is duet No. 3 from the first volume of Twenty Easy Melodic Progressive Studies by Italian Romantic composer Ernesto Köhler. It is marked con tristezza, which means “with sadness”, and a sense of sadness is indeed conveyed by the use of a minor key.
Theobald Boehm, the inventor who perfected the modern Western concert flute and its improved fingering system, was also a virtuoso flutist as well as a celebrated composer for the instrument. This “Souvenir of the Alps”, written in 1852, is the fifth of a set of six such pieces.
This tune is taken from Francis O'Neill's collection Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1903. It is a variation on an older tune, “Jackson's Coggie in the Morning”, which had appeared in O'Farrell's Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes around 1805.
