Tune of the Day: Giga by Corelli

from Trio Sonata in E minor, transcribed for two flutes

This giga is the fourth and final movement of Italian Baroque composer Arcangelo Corelli's Trio Sonata No. 4 in E minor, published in 1685. Corelli was a violinist, and this sonata was originally scored for two violins and continuo; however, it can be played with little or no modification by two modern flutes, the only potential issue being the two low B's near the end.

Thanks to Mario for contributing this piece!
