Title: La Douceur, from Heldenmusik (12 Heroic Marches)

Composer: Georg Philipp Telemann, arr. David Gable

Instrumentation: Violin and Viola

Printout: 2 pages

Note: Aptly named “sweetness,” La Douceur is a gentle and amiable piece, hardly a march other than being in duple meter. The two parts move along in tandem, occasionally trading roles. The violin part is playable on flute or oboe.
