Chaconne in G Major, G 229 [Alf:98-PS1028]

This masterpiece of the theme and variation form is one of Handel's best-known works for keyboard. It opens with a heroic theme and variations in G major, followed by a poignant, lyrical section of variations in G minor, and it concludes with a decisive return to G major.A brilliant, yet accessible recital piece, newly edited and engraved for the modern performer.
