From the suite Bergamasque. One of the most famous suites of Claude Debussy, and is widely regarded as the most facinating. Most likely named after Paul Verlaine's poem Clair De Lune. A delightful arrangment of this popular piece that has been simplified to make it more accesible to players with less playing experience.

The story centres on the English princess Caroline Mathilde (1751-1775), sister of George III, who at the age of 15 was sent to Denmark to marry the 17-year-old eccentric and schizophrenic Danish King, Christian VII. The ballet portrays her unhappy marriage, the King's growing madness and her fatal love-affair with Struensee, the King's influential physician, which leads to their arrest, his execution and her exile, at the age of 20, separated from her two young children. This suite begins with the act's opening number: a boisterous, stamping dance to which the people rudely mock Queen Caroline Mathilde and her lover Struensee. After this comes a dark Adagio, The Conspiracy, in which the theme passes like persuasion from mouth to mouth, its variations suggesting the different attitudes of the conspirators, firmly controlled by the brass-driven gestures of the Queen Dowager. The conspiracy then works itself out at a court masked ball, from which the suite includes two dances: a gavotte, and a slow, lubricious passacaglia that is a pas de deux for Caroline Mathilde and Struensee. The Arrest comes with a gathering rush of music that envelops the King, the Queen and Struensee, leading to a vociferous climax in which they are held apart. In The Execution, slow white music for wordless female voices, harp and low strings is interrupted by pathetic, alienated outbursts from the King. The suite ends, as does the ballet, with a quiet adagio lament for clarinets and alto flute as the Queen goes into exile. Score. Duration c. 33mins.

George Frederic Handel's world famous Water Music was actually first performed on water: On the 22nd of August 1715 a boat with musicians accompanied the sovereign King George I. and his Royal household on a boat trip down the Thamses from Whitehall to Limehouse. During the return trip they played for the very first time a Suite from the Water Music. Two more Musical trips took place on 17th and 19th of July 1717. This Arrangement for four flutes combines the most famous movements into an individual Suite. Occasional divisi-passages are optional.
