I'd like to know the name of the baroque piece in the scene where Al Gorky plays the recorder.

  • To help others who may be searching: I've tried two things that didn't pan out: (1) looking at the end credits, which lists details for some of the jazz numbers but doesn't seem to mention this song and (2) a melody search on Musipedia (and the associated "contour search"): musipedia.org/…

    Since it's not credited, it might be a composition made for this film (in baroque style).

  • What is a recorder flute? Do you mean recorder? Can you be sure that it's baroque?

The original music in the movie was composed by Lennie Niehaus, and, as Arsak suggested, that includes this baroque-style piece, according to Sonya Jason, who writes that she was one of the clarinetists in that scene. I can't find evidence that the movie piece was anything but. For any more information, including answering your original question about the title, I suggest starting with his publisher(s) and/or estate.
