This music was originally attributed to Giovanni Pergolesi, as they were so described in a Mr R. Bremner's original 1780 London publication. They were also arranged later by Hugo Riemann, and were again wrongly attributed to Giovanni Pergolesi.
It is actually the 1st movement of Domenico Gallo's 1st Trio Sonata in G.
It was used by Igor Stravinsky as a basis of the first movement (Sinfonia) of his Neo Classical Ballet Pulcinella.
The Pulcinella Suite for small chamber orchestra and 3 vocalists which was derived from the ballet, was written in 1922 and has no vocal parts.
This is the original music he used as the basis of the Sinfonia.
But even though Stravinsky used Gallo's ("Pergolesi's") melodies and bass lines with little change, he managed to put his own unmistakable stamp on the music through his use of modern harmonies and occasional rhythmic modifications.
My arrangement is of the the original Gallo piece:
The only change I have made is to move the bar lines so that my piece starts, as does Stravinsky's, with a quaver pickup, rather than Gallo's half bar and a quaver pickup.
My arrangement is entirely in 4/4 using Gallo's classical/baroque harmonies.
It does not sound too dissimilar to Stravinsky's which sadly will be in copyright for many years.
Check out my other arrangements of other music used by Stravinsky in his "Pulcinella Suite."
