Handel: The Complete Wind Sonatas

   
Audio example
 
Sonata in F major for Recorder and Basso continuo
Handel's sonatas for wind instruments present a wide variety of styles, and make many demands on the players. This example, from one of his sonatas for the recorder, gives an idea of the technical difficulty of these pieces, balanced always by Handel's lyrical gift.
