Adam Falckenhagen (1697 - 1754) was a German lutenist and composer of the late Baroque period, travelling from court to court throughout his life, eventually settling in Bayreuth. It was there that he won the favour of Wilhelmine of Prussia, Margravine of Bayreuth, a lutenist herself, and the sister of Frederick the Great. He composed a variety of music for lute, including this Concerto in F Major in three movements: Allegro, Andante, and Vivace.

In this edition, Victor Van Puijenbroeck has created a piano reduction of the orchestral score and also has adapted the lute part to be played on guitar. Included are parts for both lute (the part has been adapted from lute tablature to modern notation) and guitar (capotasto).

Instrumentation:

• Guitar (or Lute) - separate parts included for each instrument
• Piano
