One of my favourite Handel movements EVER is the first one (Larghetto) from the Sonata in F major, HWV 369 (Op. 1, No. 11). It's absolutely beautiful, and actually has a very nostalgic feel to it. The legendary Danish recorder player Michala Petri recorded (no pun intended) this with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, so instead of having a continuo (i.e. harpsichord and cello) it's almost a concerto or suite. Beautiful.

Your excitement is inspiring. I'm feeling a gooey place in my heart for classical music I haven't wanted to play for a long time. My dad would give me sheet music for classical pieces and I had no clue what they were supposed to sound like. He'd get all starry-eyed when I (a 12-year-old alto sax player who didn't appreciate her talent) played it well. You've got me wanting to go back to basics and re-internalise my instinctive metronome, which sprung its gears years ago and is a flat out wonky now. Gaah! My Christmas haul was a soprano, alto, and tenor recorder. Thanks for sharing your passion for music and this beautiful instrument.

Oh Sarah...I already love your channel, but this video really takes the cake! I feel like so often Handel is overlooked in favor of more flashy, or difficult Baroque pieces, but (in my humble opinion), they are some of the most beautifully written pieces for the recorder! Although I originally came to them by way of my beginnings as a flutist, it's when I approached them on the recorder that I really connected to them. I almost always have them on my stand, and are often my favorite warm up pieces! Thank you so much for being such so darn awesome!!!

4:25 As a native Spanish speaker it is funny to me how you pronounce Händel in English 🙂. We say /hendel/ since the standard German A-umlaut (ä) represents a sound similar to the vowel in the English word _bet._ It is maybe because he became English and his name was anglicized.

That's exactly what happened. He became Mr Handel in England, pronounced like "hand". Also Georg Friederich became George Friderick. ("Friderick" is a bit unusual, so sometimes his name is found as the more usual "Frederick", but it was "Friderick" on the legal document that made him a naturalized British subject). So English speakers usually go with the anglicized version of both spelling and pronunciation of his name, while German speakers naturally use the original German spelling and pronunciation (complete with umlaut). Speakers of other languages can use whichever they please, I suppose.

Haendel wasn't born in London, though, but in Halle, Germany. :D - slip of the tongue at (00.18) I do love Handel! His non-vocal music often has a "singing" quality to it that makes it especially pleasant to my ears. As an opera composer, he wrote beautifully for the great virtuosos of his time. In his later career he achieved a great emotional depth by setting to music very intense librettos.

I'm having a smack myself in the head moment here. I've been playing these for years. I learned them from a book which I bought on a whim one day - it is published by Barenreiter and titled "Eleven Sonatas for Flute (Recorder)" Of the 11 sonatas, only four are identified as "recorder" sonatas - G minor, A minor, C major and F major - they fit nicely in the alto recorder range, lovely. The others are all labelled "flute" sonatas, and they aren't so alto-friendly - so I play them on a tenor, which is my favourite recorder anyway, so I'm not complaining. But when you mentioned a D minor sonata and played a bit of it which I instantly recognised, my first thought was, "Hang on, this is in B minor when I play it..." Seems like I bought the wrong book 😁

Brilliant introduction to Handel's recorder sonatas - I have only played the G minor which I love but am inspired to try the others. I have always struggled to make much of the 3rd movement - but your suggestion of thinking about the continuo might help: trouble is I have lost the cd that came with my Dowani play along version - aarghh!!! Also, is it ok to be a bit cheeky when playing the repeat of the final part (Presto/VI)? I like to use double tonguing for bars 14, 15 (not true double tonguing just playing every note twice really fast), and even singing along whilst playing.

Like some pieces by Johann "no-place-to-breathe" Bach, I find Handel's sonatas rewarding to revisit. There is always something new to discover and something new to try. (For example, thanks to your videos, I'm starting to cotton on to double and triple tonguing.) Two years ago, I prepared the F major sonata for the Grade 6 Royal Conservatory of Music examination. My teacher recorded me playing the third and fourth movements during a recital... soundcloud.com/user-588460209. (After about a minute of silence, there is also a piece by Brian Bonsor.)

Sarah, well, of course you have to transpose Bach: he did not write those solo pieces for recorder (as you know, c'mon!). This is why I like to have so many flutes and recorders. The right tool for the right job, I always say. I don't like to play recorder repertoire on flute, and I don't like to play flute repertoire on recorder. Not that there's anything , wrong with it. I agree, they are quite nice, despite the necessary alterations. Accomplished recorderists must play those pieces on recorder if they do not also play transverse flute. Except, you DO play flute ;-) If you want, you could play exactly all the notes precisely how he wrote them on your flute, or, even better, since you have conquered the recorder world, you could branch out into new horizons and get yourself a TRAVERSO! OOOOOOOHHHHHHH! Wouldn't that be fun? Play Bach's solo flute pieces on the flute he wrote them for. And the B minor suite. And some other stuff. I think you would take to it quite easily.
