This Rondeau is from the incidental music by Henry Purcell for a theatre work called "Abdelazar", and has been arranged here for piano or another keyboard instrument such as a harpsichord. This same theme was used to great effect by Benjamin Britten in his fun yet educational piece called A Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, and the recent film Pride and Prejudice also incorporates this familiar music. Here is a printable PDF version of this Piano Sheet Music or you might also want to check out our arrangement for Four SATB Recorders.
