Franz Clemens Duke of Bavaria

Here are Three Sonatas and twelve menuettos originally for the Gallichone, a simpler version of a lute strung much like a modern guitar, now available as arrangements for the low G ukulele. Klemens Franz de Paula, Prince of Bavaria (Munich, 19 April 1722 - Munich, 6 August 1770) was the son of the Imperial Field Marshal Ferdinand of Bavaria (1699-1738), and the grandson of Maximilian II Emanuel, Elector of Bavaria. This was an age of Monarchs and great wars. It is no wonder, then, that his music would include military themes such as the three Marcia Maestoso which begin each Sonata.
