I've just been listening to my Columbia LPs of Rampal playing Handel's
flute sonatas.  (I also have the Bach sonatas.) They're as fine as I
remembered them (it's been a while--so much easier to play CDs).  I
happened to notice, in the C major sonata, at the beginning of a slow
movement, the same figure that makes (at least for me) the slow movement
of the Concierto de Aranjuez so affecting:  just a mordent, but given a
lingering, meaningful emphasis.  One of those little echoes that are so
intriguing.
