“Something new for 2 flutes and piano”
There is something refreshing about this Suite as it isn't exactly what you might expect for this combination. Full of Scandanavian colour, it immediately transports you to the the snow covered landscape of the cover! The Introduction has gentle lilting rhythms over wistful harmonies, whilst Pipemans Dance is jaunty and energetic. The seconcd movement, Plaint, is a much starker D minor and full of a feeling of isolation. Approachable in style, this is a valuable addition to the repertoire.
