These six arias from Gioacchino Rossini's beloved opera "The Barber of Seville" were first arranged for two bassoons in the 1820's by French bassoonist François-René Gebauer. During this time, Gebauer was performing with the Paris Opera. He arranged two volumes of these arias, and flutist Jeffrey Beyer has chosen to transpose, adapt and arrange the following selections for C Flute and Alto Flute duet: Ecco, ridente in cielo, Largo al factotum, Una voce poco fa, Dunque io son, Zitti zitti, piano piano, and Di si felice innesto.

Instrumentation:

• C Flute
• Alto Flute
