Tune of the Day: Allegro by Locatelli
from Flute Sonata in G minor
This Allegro is the fourth and final movement of the sixth of 12 sonatas for flute and continuo by Italian composer Pietro Antonio Locatelli, published in Amsterdam in 1732. It is peculiar in that the melody is in 12/8 time, while the accompaniment is in 4/4.
