The Cuckoo

Louis-Claude Daquin

  • Difficulty 7
  • E minor
  • 2 min
  • 115 measures

The rondeau from the third suite of Louis-Claude Daquin's Premier livre de pièces de clavecin, published in 1735. Lively and nimble, it weaves perpetual fast runs around the cuckoo's falling-third call, with the left hand briefly taking over in broken octaves.
