Length: approx. 3 ¾ mins.
Javanola as a recorder sextet is an all tenor/bass affair and here the bass voices are reminded not to overwhelm the tenors. Its form is AABBB with a 4-bar introduction and a 14-bar interlude preceding the final B-strain. The whole is written in the major key of F. It is a beautiful piece the vaguely oriental and mysterious flowing melodies of which are advantageously brought out by the tenor voices. Javanola will delight those bass-loving recorder ensembles.
Javanola was published in Melody by Walter Jacobs, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
A tempo of 80 crotchets/min. is suggested.
