Beschreibung
This short Adagio for flute and unfigured bass is the oldest known example of quartertone music, inspired by the Greek enharmonic genre. Quartertones are used mainly ornamentally. The piece can be found in Delusse’s L’art de la flûte traversière, where also a fingering table for quartertones on the 18th-century flute can be found. This table is reproduced in the introduction of the present edition. A realization of the bass has been added.
