French composer Gabriel Fauré wrote Sicilienne in 1893 to be used as incidental music for the play The Bourgeois Gentleman by Molière. But the theatre in Paris who commissioned the work went bankrupt the following year, so Fauré put the music aside. Five years later he arranged it for cello and piano. The siciliana is an instrumental or vocal work in a slow 6/8 or 12/8 meter in a minor key. It is occasionally sorrowful in feeling and was a common pastorale genre used by composers of the Baroque era. This arrangement for viola and piano is perfect for recitals or any occasion.

Siciliano by J S Bach arranged for Viola and Piano
Most arrangements of this music (the 2nd movement of J.S. Bach’s Sonata in E Flat for Flute and Cembalo BWV1031) repeat the first 22 bars of the original score, thus creating a lengthier piece suitable for a concert program. In this new arrangement, however, the repeated section is made more interesting by reversing the roles of the solo and accompaniment parts: the piano now plays the melodic line (along with the bass line as before) whilst the soloist provides the accompanying counterpoint. Bach’s original manuscript contains no performance directions other than a fermata (pause) at the very end. All performance directions in this version are suggestions only.
