Composed by Gottlieb Muffat. Arranged by Edited by Rick Robertson. Baroque,Instructional,Standards,Wedding. Score. 3 pages. Rick Robertson #6069235. Published by Rick Robertson (A0.877871).

Gottlieb Muffat (April 1690 – 9 December 1770), son of Georg Muffat, served as Hofscholar under Johann Fux
in Vienna from 1711 and was appointed to the position of third court organist at the Hofkapelle in 1717.
He acquired additional duties over time including the instruction of members of the Imperial family,
among them the future Empress Maria Theresa. He was promoted to second organist in 1729 and first organist
upon the accession of Maria Theresa to the throne in 1741. He retired from official duties at the court in
1763. (Wikipedia)

Muffat's music is highly melodic, accessible, enjoyable, and worth a second look. Although this is unmistakably Baroque, the editor prefers to use the expressive tools available when performing this on a modern piano. This rediscovery is very
accessible technically and musically, and makes a valuable addition to the developing pianist's repertoire.  It could be used in recital performance, as well as in church service or wedding-music playing.


This newly-engraved edition by Rick Robertson spaces the music out to make it easier to read.
Some confusing notation is cleared up as well.
