Gavotte in C minor

Gavotte - Rondeau$$$$$$Although traditionally attributed to Jean-Baptiste Lully, this Gavotte in C minor remains of uncertain origin.

In fact, a very similar tune appears in the Premier livre des pièces de viole by Marin Marais, which was first published in 1686.

Please refer to no. 24, which has for title Rondeau.

This score is an arrangement of Lully's alleged version for easy clarinet in B flat with piano accompaniment.

The clarinet part is appropriate for Grade 3 clarinet students.

Please note that the dynamics given in this score are editorial and should thus be regarded as mere suggestions to the players.

Also, please note that this score contains suggestions for performing the ornaments (trills and turns) in accordance with the performance practice of the Baroque period.

In particular, trills are to be played ON the beat, beginning on the upper auxiliary note.$$$$$$Duration : 01:58$$$$$$Source : Jean-Baptiste Lully, Miscellaneous Instrumental Works.$$$$$$t8P2P7zNXs8
