Jacob Van Eyck
Jacob van Eyck ( , ; 26 March 1657) was a Dutch nobleman and blind musician. He was one of the best-known musicians of the Dutch Golden Age, working as a carillon player and technician, an organist, a recorder virtuoso, and a composer. He was an expert in bell casting and tuning, and taught Pieter and François Hemony how to tune a carillon. Van Eyck is credited with developing the modern carillon together with the brothers in 1644, when they cast the first tuned carillon in Zutphen. He is also known for his collection of 143 melodies for recorder, , the largest work for a solo wind instrument in European history. Biography Early life Jacob van Eyck was born in 1589 or 1590 into a noble family probably in the small town of Heusden. Born blind, he lived with his mother and father well into adulthood. Van Eyck became involved as a player and technician of village's carillon by 1619. He met with several craftsmen and the city organist to discuss changes and improvement ...

Recorder Sonata In C Major, HWV 365 (Handel)
The Sonata in C major ( HWV 365), for recorder and basso continuo, was composed (probably before 1712) by George Frideric Handel. The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 7'', and was first published in or shortly after 1726—in a collection of twelve sonatas titled ''Sonates pour un Traversiere un Violon ou Hautbois Con Basso Continuo Composées par G. F. Handel''—purportedly in Amsterdam by Jeanne Roger, but now shown to have been a forgery by the London publisher John Walsh. Walsh republished this sonata in 1731 or 1732 under his own imprint in a similar collection, containing ten of the earlier sonatas and two new ones, with the new title ''Solos for a German Flute a Hoboy or Violin With a Thorough Bass for the Harpsichord or Bass Violin Compos'd by Mr. Handel''. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as HG xxvii, 15; and HHA iv/3,33. The pseudo-Roger, Walsh, and the Chrysander (based upon pseudo-Roger and Walsh) editions indicate that the wo ...

Recorder Sonata In A Minor (HWV 362)
The Sonata in A minor ( HWV 362) was composed (c. 1712) by George Frideric Handel for recorder and basso continuo (the autograph manuscript, a fair copy made most likely in 1712, gives this instrumentation in Italian: "flauto e cembalo"). The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 4'', and was first published in 1732 by Walsh. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as HG xxvii, 15; and HHA iv/3,21.Anthony Hicks, "Handel, George Frideric", ''The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', second edition, edited by Stanley Sadie and John Tyrrell (London: Macmillan Publishers, 2001): 10:801. Both the Walsh edition and the Chrysander edition indicate that the work is for recorder ("flauto"), and published it as ''Sonata IV''. A typical performance of the work takes about 11 minutes.

Recorder Sonata In F Major (HWV 369)
The Sonata in F major ( HWV 369) was composed (before 1712) by George Frideric Handel for recorder and basso continuo (the autograph manuscript, a fair copy made most likely in 1712, gives this instrumentation in Italian: "flauto e cembalo"). The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 11'', and was first published in 1732 by Walsh. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as HG xxvii, 40; and HHA iv/3,52.

Recorder Sonata In G Minor (HWV 360)
The Sonata in G minor ( HWV 360) was composed by George Frideric Handel for recorder and basso continuo (the autograph manuscript, a fair copy made most likely in 1712, gives this instrumentation in Italian: "flauto e cembalo"). The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 2'', and was first published in 1732 by Walsh. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as HG xxvii,9; and HHA iv/3,16.Anthony Hicks, "Handel, George Frideric", ''The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', second edition, edited by Stanley Sadie and John Tyrrell (London: Macmillan Publishers, 2001): 10:801.

Recorder Sonata In D Minor (HWV 367a)
The Sonata in D minor ( HWV 367a) was composed, circa 1709–15, by George Frideric Handel for recorder and basso continuo. The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 9a''. Another catalogue of Handel's music refers to the work as HHA iv/18,19,45 (there is no HG designation for the work). The autograph manuscript of the sonata is written on Italian paper, which was acquired by Handel during his travels in Italy between the end of 1706 and the end of 1709. Although he continued to use this paper until 1715, it is most likely that the autograph was written in about 1712. Handel's handwriting in this manuscript (and the one for the B major recorder sonata) is much less careful than in the fair copies he made at about the same time as the four sonatas in G minor, A minor, C major, and F major. The sonata was published by Walsh circa 1730, in an "incredibly botched" edition purporting to be from the Amsterdam publisher Jean Roger, arranged by an unknown hand as a flute sonata in B ...

Sonata In B Minor For Flute Or Recorder And Harpsichord
The Sonata in B minor for transverse flute and obbligato harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 1030) is a sonata in 3 movements: * ''Andante'' * ''Largo e dolce'' * ''Presto'' The existing autograph manuscript dates from after 1735, when Bach led the Collegium Musicum in Leipzig Leipzig ( , ; Upper Saxon: ) is the most populous city in the German state of Saxony. Leipzig's population of 605,407 inhabitants (1.1 million in the larger urban zone) as of 2021 places the city as Germany's eighth most populous, as .... There are errors in the manuscript, and another harpsichord part in G minor that is otherwise the same though transposed, that suggests that this, like the G minor and D major harpsichord concertos, may be among the works Bach transcribed from earlier works originally for other instrumental combinations and in other keys to be playable by performers at hand.

Sonata In E-flat Major For Flute Or Recorder And Harpsichord
The Sonata in E major for flute and harpsichord, probably by J. S. Bach (BWV 1031), is a sonata in 3 movements: * ''Allegro moderato'' (in E major) * ''Siciliano'' (in G minor) – unusually, this movement is in the mediant minor key (the relative minor of the dominant key) * ''Allegro'' (in E major) The Bach scholar Robert Marshall has argued that the sonata was composed by J. S. Bach, since it was attributed to him by two independent sources, Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach in the manuscript copy of the work in his handwriting, and Christian Friedrich Penzel, Bach's last pupil. The musicologist Jeanne Swack has suggested alternatively that BWV 1031 was "modelled" on a previous work for flute in E-flat by Johann Joachim Quantz (QV2:18 in the Augsbach catalog), which survives in a version for flute and obbligato harpsichord and in another version for flute, violin, and continuo. The similarities she cites are based primarily on structural and compositional considerations, as ...

Sonata In C Major For Flute Or Recorder And Basso Continuo
The Sonata in C major for flute and basso continuo (BWV 1033) is a sonata in 4 movements. It is attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach in the manuscript, which is in the hand of his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and has been dated to about 1731, although scholars question the attribution Jeanne Swack, "Flute Sonatas and Partitas," an entry in ''The Oxford Composer Companion: J. S. Bach'', edited by Malcolm Boyd and John Butt, Oxford University Press, 1999, p. 175 The movements are: * ''Andante – Presto'' * ''Allegro'' * ''Adagio'' * ''Menuet 1 – Menuet 2'' Jeanne Swack notes that the first menuet "is related to the first in a set of variations in a concerto for oboe, obligato cembalo and doubling cello by the Merseburg composer Christoph Förster"; this suggests that the movements of BWV 1033 "may have had a disparate origin, as does the sudden appearance of an obbligato cembalo part solely for that movement." The basso continuo can be provided by a variety of instruments. For ex ...

Sonata In E Major For Flute Or Recorder And Basso Continuo
The Sonata in E major for flute and basso continuo (BWV 1035) is a sonata for transverse flute and figured bass composed by J. S. Bach in the 1740s. It was written as the result of a visit in 1741 to the court of Frederick the Great in Potsdam, where Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel had been appointed principal harpsichordist to the king the previous year. It was dedicated to Michael Gabriel Fredersdorf, the king's valet and private secretary, who, like the king, was an amateur flautist. Origins and musical structure The surviving nineteenth-century sources for the sonata carry dedications to Frederick the Great's private secretary, Michael Gabriel Fredersdorf: one of the earliest hand copies of BWV 1035 is annotated "after the autograph by the composer, which was written anno 17--, when he was at Potsdam, for privy chamberlain Fredersdorf." Fredersdorf had been taught to play the flute by his father, a ''Stadtpfeifer'' in Frankfurt. He acted as an intermediary with the Dresden f ...

Sonata In A Major For Flute Or Recorder And Harpsichord
The Sonata in A major for transverse flute and harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 1032) is a sonata in 3 movements: * Movement 1: Vivace (in A major) * Movement 2: Largo e dolce (in A minor, ending with an imperfect cadence) * Movement 3: Allegro (in A major) Unusually, the second movement is written in the parallel minor (A minor), rather than the relative minor (F-sharp minor) or another closely related key. The autograph is incomplete, and there are 46 bars missing. There exist reconstructions by various authors.

Sonata In E Minor For Flute Or Recorder And Basso Continuo
Sonata in E minor for flute and basso continuo by J. S. Bach (BWV 1034) is a sonata in four movements: * ''Adagio ma non tanto'' * ''Allegro'' * ''Andante'' * ''Allegro'' The basso continuo can be provided by a variety of instruments. For example in complete Bach recordings, Stephen Preston on Brilliant Classics (originally recorded by CRD UK) is accompanied by harpsichord and viola da gamba while on Hänssler Classic Jean-Claude Gérard is accompanied by piano and bassoon. The piece is largely believed to have been written during Bach's Köthen period (1717–23), when he was employed as ''Kapellmeister'' for Leopold, Prince of Anhalt-Köthen. However, there is some evidence that this may have been written slightly later, after Bach's move to Leipzig Leipzig ( , ; Upper Saxon: ) is the most populous city in the German state of Saxony. Leipzig's population of 605,407 inhabitants (1.1 million in the larger urban zone) as of 2021 places the city as Germany's eighth most ...
