Divisions on a Ground - S.Eccles/Ph.Spätling/J.Lohmann

Instrumentation: alto recorder and/or bass recorder

The eight-bar bass of this ground is by Solomon Eccles (1618-1683) and was printed with his variations on it in the "Division Flute" (1706/08, Walsh).
Over the original bass now appear 40 Divisions by Philipp Spätling.
The solo part comes with a playalong by Jens Lohmann, who has interpreted this bass with electronic sounds and drums in a varied way.
Most of the variations are for alto recorder, some others can also be played very well on a bass recorder.
Create your own piece of music by choosing your favourites from the 40 variations and combine them into ever new pieces.
