Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G, Movement I (Allegro), BWV 1049

Bach. Violin, 2 Flutes (standard C Flute in this case), a mess of strings, and harpsichord. The primary violin is obviously sampled in a few of the faster passages, but the sweet tone shines through nicely on the slower notes. This is my first attempt at a Brandenburg... I suspect I'll revisit this one after I get a few more recorded. Still, it is probably the best free and digital recording available. 008

Gymnopedie No. 1

Elegant and slightly dark, the simplicity of the piano melody is light and touching, with a feeling of pensive restraint. It is beautiful accompaniment to the close of a drama, or of a midday reverie. Composed by Erik Satie. 008

Gymnopedie No. 2

This piece is dramatic and very dynamic; in the beginning and towards the end the music is soft and tender, but it is punctuated by aggressive changes in volume and minor chords throughout. This piece could work well to depict grief, as the emotions and feelings are similarly mercurial. Composed by Erik Satie. 008

Gymnopedie No. 3

A slow waltz with a beautiful and haunting melody played mostly in the higher registers. A few notes were added to Satie’s composition to keep things interesting and give the music a more full sound, the music ends with a very dark chord. This music is sad and tragic, and could be used as accompaniment to a slow dance or an art house film. Composed by Erik Satie. 008

Fig Leaf Rag

The classic ragtime ditty of Scott Joplin, perfect for a silent film of whimsy and humor. The piece begins with a short intro, then plays the bouncy rhythm of with a bright plodding beat. At the end of the third minute, the pace quickens, and leads into a darker refrain, but the jolly melody returns for the finale. 031 008
