Instrumentation: Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet, French Horn and Bassoon. This work by George Fredric Handel is, in some ways, a mini-sonata. It starts with a bright rhythmic duet of clarinet and horn supported by an interesting accompaniment, then progresses to a slow section featuring the upper woodwinds accompanied by the bassoon. And finally, an abbreviated version of the first section ends the piece. This adaptation is a great choice for players seeking music with historic integrity. Duration 7:00. American Grade 4
