Pergolesi Flute Concerto in G major

The Flute Concerto in G major is a work usually atributed to Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, though it is probably spurious (hissuccess led to many to attribute their works to him in order to sell better). In any case, it is one of the few purely instrumental compositions attributed to Pergolessi, scored for flute, 2 violins, and continuo. Its 3 movements last about twelve minutes.
