Here is the second movement of Handel's Sonata in G minor for Recorder. After the slow opening Larghetto, which we posted last week, this Andante picks up the pace a bit. Although in a different form, its melody also appears in the solo “Vouchsafe, o Lord” in Handel's Te Deum in A.
| 1. | Larghetto | Flute & Piano |
| 2. | Andante | Flute & Piano |
| 3. | Adagio | Flute & Piano |
| 4. | Presto | Flute & Piano |
