Bourr?

This masterful arrangement by Carl Strommen will allow your ensemble to explore 17th- and 18th-century music. The Bourr? is a lively dance of French origin, characteristically played in cut time, with phrases often starting on the fourth beat of the measure. Bourr?s often appear in the instrumental suites of Bach, Handel, and other giants of the Baroque era. Johann Philipp (von) Krieger (1649-1725) was the most notable of a family of distinguished German musicians. His oeuvre includes sacred and secular vocal music, solo and trio sonatas, partitas, and works in most of the idioms known during his time.
