From the Publisher
Lively piece in a Minuet style with plenty of quick triplet notes.
Carl Philip Emmanuel Bach was a son of J.S. Bach and a contemporary of C.W Gluck (and his godfather was G.P. Telemann). His compositional style owes much to the older composers, but it has a more expressive quality that paved the way for developments in the Classical period. This piece is a good introduction to this style, known as 'Empfindsamkeit'.
The included flute duet* is the special feature of this edition, allowing the work to be performed by 2 equal flutes with or without a piano.
*in the duet version, flute 1 has the complete flute solo, while the accompaniment is compressed into a single line for the flute 2.
