Tune of the Day: Dieu d'amour
by André Grétry, arranged for flute and piano
This piece was originally a chorus from André Grétry's 1776 opera Les mariages samnites (The Samnite Marriages), sung in Act I by a group of young girls. The theme is well known to pianists because of a set of variations composed by Mozart in 1781.
Thanks to Doug for suggesting this tune!
