“Easy low flutes listening!”
Chris Hankin Just Flutes staff member - [email protected]
Daniel Dorff is at his best here, writing an easy listening piece which works a treat on these low flutes. Both instruments use their full ranges which makes it interesting to play as well as quite challenging, and the jazz-infused harmonies create a relaxed feeling that the accompaniment underpins beautifully. If you're lucky enough to have low flutes buy this now!
From the Publisher
A change of pace for low flutes, Dorff’s BALLADE is a 7-minute slow-fast-slow exploration. The rich beauty of alto and bass flute sonorities, particularly in their low registers, is inspired by jazz vocal stylings along with a theatrical approach to duet writing, as dialogue and counterpoint between the instruments builds to dramatic unison passages in octaves. BALLADE is also available for Alto Flute, Flugelhorn, and Piano.
