Description
The Willow song is a traditional tune (first documented in a lute book dated 1583) which was used for Desdemona's lament "The poor soul sat sighing by a sycamore tree" in Shakespeare's tragedy Othello.
I have given the tune and a variation on the tune to the flute while the viola provides countermelodies.
