Tune of the Day: Congress Waltz
arranged for three flutes
This flute trio is taken from Blake's Young Flutist's Magazine, published in Philadelphia in 1833.
We suspect the piece to have American origins, but unfortunately we were unable to trace its composer. We could identify two 19th-century pieces titled “Congress Waltz”, one by Charles Zeuner and one by William Winterstein, but neither appears to be related to the present arrangement.
