Baltimore Composers Forum Concert - "Flute Songs" : Three Piece for Flute and Piano (2010)


Flute Songs : Three Piece for Flute and Piano (2010)

I. Broken Nest

II. Tears
III. Ditty


In the " Flute Songs : Three Piece for Flute and Piano", I brought back the idea about music for flute which I have been keeping for a long time. In three short pieces, I intend to each pieces have their own distinctive characteristics.

In the "Broken Nest" with "dark and agitate", flute leaps around with slow and sustained chord progressions of piano. In the "Tears" with "gloomy and melancholic", flute expresses its melody freely with disturbing repetitive piano sounds. The "Ditty" has contrasting feeling with previous two pieces. With "cheerful and bright", flute and piano shares chat-like conversation each other.
