Because Water Music was assembled and published posthumously as a complete collection, the order in which the composer wished the various movements to be played remains uncertain. It is customary, however, to group the movements according to their keys and instrumentations, creating three shorter suites—in F major, in D major, and in G major. The groupings contain 5 to 10 movements of varying musical character, and, in some cases, distinct national provenance and social association. The bouncy duple-time hornpipe, with its intricate, often syncopated rhythms, was a dance of the British Isles.

Other dance movements featured in Water Music include the sarabande , the gigue , and the rigaudon. Each of the three subsuites opens with a stately overture and concludes with a festive movement that, indeed, is reminiscent of the original performance context.

The first joint only of the finger rocks up slightly as you straighten it, while the back of that joint, The part palm-side, remains on the instrument.

A basic exercise is just that, rocking that joint between the E and the F natural. If so what whistle would be best to use for this? An F whistle seems like it would be too low.

Rather than an animal, it is a pattern invented by Moghul miniaturists and plundered by Art Nouveau decorators. Even in the wild -I saw whole coveys of them on the Dekkan roads- he is not credible. At top speed, he barely rises above chest level, as if he could not get away from the world wherein he strayed. We can sense that his true destiny is to crown giant meat pies from which spring out hurdy-gurdy-playing dwarfs in bell hats.

I will die without ever comprehending how Linnaeus could admit it in his classification. Usually played in Dmin, and been here for 14 years. If you are a member of The Session, log in to add a comment. Remember, this is folk music. Use these files as guidelines, not gospel, and have fun!
