Fiocco (1703-41) was the most famous member of a family of Belgian musicians. As well as being a church musician, Joseph was a violin maker, a professor of Latin and Greek, and a distiguished harpsichord player. His famous Allegro, originally written for harpsichord, lies well for the euphonium. It requires a steady tempo throughout its compass and dynamic range, and is ideal for improving technique and stamina. The lyrical Arioso demands well-shaped phrases and fine breath control.
