A musical mystery solved!

[sawyl]

A couple of months ago, I heard a piece of music in the soundtrack of a TV show — the Warehouse 13 episode Queen for a Day — which I liked and thought I recognised but couldn't quite place. I was pretty sure the composer was Handel, I was confident it was a concerto grosso, and I was reasonably certain about the key, but I just couldn't find it among the Opus 6 concerti. Which, it turns out, is no great surprise: the piece was actually the vivace from Opus 3 no. 2 in B-flat major:

And the reason I thought I knew the piece was because I've got Raymond Leppard's recording of the concerti from the early 70s which, somehow, hadn't made it into iTunes when I ripped the matching set of organ concerti with Daniel Chorzempa...
