Program Notes

for Flute and Piano

Quixotique presents the musical result of the struggle for control between two strong-willed partners who have essentially different characters but a singular goal. Flute is lyrical, eloquent and a little sarcastic, while Piano is brash and somewhat moody. Their back-and-forth carries the two through various musical developments­­, with the partners at times engaging in dialogue and sometimes arguments! Their tension creates an interesting dynamic that moves between aggression, commiseration, gentle mockery, and even amusement! Truly quixotic!­­

The work is suitable for advanced players in a concert or recital setting and offers ample opportunity for individual virtuosity as well as chamber music style collaboration.
