Get the audience feet tapping at your concert with this Baroque music given a modern twist. Handel's notes with swung rhythms - it's fun and it's educational. Can be played by just 2 flutes or more:
Flute 1 - Handel's original flute part with swing and a very few changes to help set the mood.
Flute 2 - has a full accompaniment based on the original Basso part.
Flute 3 is an optional rhythm flute.
Flute 4 is an optional rhythm flute.
And what about adding a drum kit also ?!
Handel lived in the same house as Jimi Hendrix [not at the same time!] and his music has much in common with jazz - it has a lead sheet for improvisation with keyboard and bass. And the rhythm was often to be 'swung'.
Jazz Handel is performed in the video by Luca Dallavia, Nadine Gruenwald, Patricia Gfoeller, Sonja Gerstgasser (innsbruck, 2019)
