SKU: A0.811820

Composed by Friedrich Schwindl (1737 - 1786). Arranged by editor Pat Spence. Classical,Concert,Graduation,Standards,Wedding. Score and parts. 40 pages. Piper Publications #6563273. Published by Piper Publications (A0.811820).

The set of six Divertimenti were first published c. 1775 by B. Hummel et fils. They were obviously very popular - as was most of Schwindl’s music during his life - and widely copied by other musicians. This led to this Divertimento and No. 5 in G major later being widely attributed to C. P. E. Bach and catalogued as  H.641 and H. 642 respectively.


Schwindl was a virtuoso violinist, flute player and keyboard player and wrote well for these instruments. The Divertimenti were written for flute or violin, violin 2, viola and cello continuo, though by the 1770s the keyboard was becoming surplus to requirements as the string quartet and the flute quartet became recognised as stand alone ensembles.


Each Divertimento has three movements, here they are Largo, Allegro and Rondeau - tempo di men(uetto). Players of intermediate standard and above will enjoy this piece.

This edition has been prepared from the c. 1775 Hummel edition. Editings are clearly shown using parentheses ( ) or dashed lines. Eighteenth century players would have added additional ornaments and dynamics during their performances and contemporary players should feel free to do the same.
