Hi. The first part you are playing is (part of) the tune for Bach's Brandenburg Concerto no 6 in Bflat major. It's in 6/8, count 123/223, 123/,223 etc. But the 3rd note should be tied (hold the note without tonguing again) to the 4th throughout much of the piece, so it sounds 123-23. This makes this piece so special, a little piece of Bach genius.

So it is indeed! Thanks for the quick reply! I've played this song for more than a decade without knowing its name! How much sweeter it is to know name of the rose that makes you swoon.
Indeed. When I was a senior in high school the 7 graduates in my class played an arrangement of it (me playing trombone, quite a far cry from the recorder I now also enjoy).
It's one of my favorite Bach melodies, and you play it very nicely.

Um, Freebird? I guess I don't know either...

The first one I'm mildly unsure of, but the second one is definitely "Wachet Auf!" (Sleepers, Wake!) from the Schubler Chorale Preludes, BWV 645.
