Georg Philipp Telemann (1681 - 1767):  Concerto a 4 violini concertati in C major - TWV 40:201
source: Mus. ms. 1033/97a. Hessische Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
scoring: SAAT
Here is the third version of the arrangement of this concerto. In this case I have taken a different approach; that is, instead of trying to transpose the music for four equal instruments (four treble recorders), I have redistributed the musical phrases among four SAAT recorders: in this way no one has to play too high notes, and almost all the parts have been preserved in their extensions.

Antonio Mortaro (? - 1619):  La Tergnana with editorial divisions of the top line
source: Primo libro de canzoni da sonare a quattro voci (Venice 1600), No. 8
scoring: A (Harpsichord)
This song lends itself well to divisions because it is clearly divided into repeated sections. If necessary, the first voice can be played by a soprano recorder in the original key, using the ensemble suggested in the related entry.

Giovanni Battista Vitali (1632 - 1692):  Passagallo I
source: Varie partite del passemezzo, ciaccona, capricii, e passagalli […] Op. 7 (Modena 1682)
scoring: AA (Bc)
In this passacaglia, G.B. Vitali once again demonstrates his remarkable ability to adapt the established norms of musical composition to his own creative vision. Typically, the passacaglia pattern involves a four–beat bass that is repeated indefinitely, albeit with melodic variations. However, in this instance, Vitali seeks to continuously alter the bass, both harmonically and melodically. Consequently, the same pattern rarely recurs, yet the musical flow remains uninterrupted.

This is one of the most beautiful and complex sonatas I have ever transcribed. It soothes the soul, at least mine does.
My edition contains both the faithful transcription of the original score in C minor for violin and concertato harpsichord and my adaptation for treble recorder in D minor.

Georg Philipp Telemann (1681 - 1767):  Adagio from Concerto in F major TWV 51:F1
scoring: SAB
The original scoring is for a treble recorder and continuo. As often happens in Telemann, difficult recorder parts meant for a treble recorder are so high that they can be played on a soprano without changing any note. This is our case. Furthermore, I added a middle part for a treble recorder based on the continuo figures.
