Phil Beaman #977773. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.1394296). This Baroque piece was originally written by Jean Loeillet as part of a Harpsichord Suite.  It is written in the Italian Corant style in the characteristic Fast(Allegro) 3/4 with rapid running passages of eighth notes (quavers) which alternate scalar steps with large leaps.  Traditionally the piece would have been performed very cleanly, not legato.My arrangement takes the melody and passes it between the three instrument parts.  I wrote a highly ornamented continuo for each part when not playing melody.  In true Baroque style I have created a tight interplay between the parts.  Each part also has a rather wide range of about 2 octaves.  Although in a Minor Key, this piece is very bright and uplifting.  It is very accessible and thus a concert crowd pleaser.  Great for the student recitals too to learn and show mastery of Baroque techniques of clean ensemble playing and ornamentation.  Most of all, this piece is just Pure Fun!  And who would expect a 17th century style piece on Xylophone, Acoustic Guitar, and Electric Bass Guitar!6 pages score, 2 pages @ partRanges -Xylophone -  bottom space F# to E above staffAcoustic Guitar - middle C to A above staffElecBass  Guitar - low B below staff to high E above staff.
