“Lovely vignettes!”
These six short pieces are beautifully arranged. The first five are are all melodious and gentle like quintessential snapshots of the English countryside, and the last is a rumbustious Irish reel. The first flute carries the bulk of the tunes with sensitive support from the lower parts, and alto players will have fun as they are not confined to simply holding low notes. Playing a selection of these lovelies would be great and playing them all would be a treat for everyone!
From the Publisher
Thomas Frederick Dunhill (1 February 1877 – 13 March 1946) was a prolific English composer in many genres, though he is best known today for his light music and educational piano works. His compositions include much chamber music, a song cycle, The Wind Among the Reeds, and an operetta, Tantivy Towers, that had a successful London run in 1931. He was also a teacher, examiner and writer on musical subjects.
