In Fa Op.X N.5 - Rv 442 F.Vi-1 - Tomo 46 --Vivaldi's Concerto in F RV 433 for Flute Strings and Basso Continuo. Called in both cases 'La tempesta di mare ' the work's opening Allegro has a characteristic thumping unison repeated-note theme with the flute soloist trading short lines in imitation with the orchestral violins in the outer sections and warbling maniacally above the ripieno in the central episodes. The opening closes on a big half cadence and then moves into the quiet central Largo with the flute soloist becalmed in the eye of the storm and haunted by memories and ghosts. The closing Presto opens with a powerful unison theme with the flute soloist performing the first long lyrical lines of the workagainst the thrusting violins and basso continuo.

Riduzione per flauto e pianoforte - revisione di Ginevra Petrucci-Giulio Briccialdi (1818-1881) has been one of the major European flutists of the Nineteenth Century. Praised by coeval critics as ?the first among the living flutists? in a period when virtuosos were reaching extraordinary levels Briccialdi was a unique artist with a quintessentially Romantic personality. His refined activity as a composer is nowadays mostly known thanks to his paraphrases on operatic themes and to his didactic output but it is through his concertos ? a real cornerstone in the instrumental virtuosic repertoire of the 1800s ? that Briccialdi exploits the pinnacle of his opera-influenced style. Briccialdi?s concertos are intended for technically and stylisticallyadvanced performers.

Moj e Bukura Moré (My Beautiful Morea) has its origin in Southern Italy in Calabria where an Albanian community has lived for more than 500 years and so has the song! The tenderness of the melodic lines expresses the natural beauty of the distant homeland which according to legend can be seen from the Calabrian mountain-tops. As in most folk songs this tune is remarkably short; the melody itself has not been altered but has been extended enriched in texture and presented in different ways.The melodic lines serve as a point of departure for the proliferation of a distinct harmonic vocabulary. © TS

Grades 1 - 4-As I sit myself down to write this brief foreword I ask myself can there be music more stirring than these old Cornish folk melodies? Though not Cornish myself (I confess to being born a little further up the road in Bristol) I feel I have spent sufficient time in these 'ere parts to resonate with the sturdy brass band tradition that continues to permeate this incomparably beautiful rugged county. One can almost detect a French 'accent' when listening to the piano music of Debussy and likewise speaking as a lapsed brass player there is undoubtedly something of the Cornish twang about Trelawny when played on a cornet or euphonium. Then again one gets a different yetentirely convincing effect upon hearing these melodies rendered on woodwind instruments; hence with a little gamesmanship on my part I am pleased to see my collection of these fifteen delectable ditties come to fruition in the form of arrangements for treble clef brass instruments (in B flat and E flat) trombone and tuba (bass clef) horn in F flute clarinet and bassoon.While many will find themselves humming the likes of Going up Camborne Hill Lamorna or The Helston Furry Dance even before they have turned to the first page - for these are indelibly intertwined with Cornish culture I wonder if I might draw your attention to The Cornish Squire The Pool of Pilate and Cold Blows the Wind Today Sweetheart which are quite simply sublime melodies perhaps needing that extra bit of help in bringing them to mind nowadays. In the best tradition of musical hand-me-downs Cornish folk music works equally ideally sung and played and only by doing so on a regular basis can such traditions hope to continue forward with vigour and authority. A legitimate way of achieving this is to revitalise the harmonic scheme of these ancient tunes and bring them up to date for a modern audience; after all it was such an approach that fuelled the imagination of Benjamin Britten and Ralph Vaughan Williams in decades past while skilfully paying homage to the
