Composition for solo flute (1998), duration 11 mins.
Computer typeset score (9p) saved as pdf for immediate download.
Three short movements: the opening section contrasts fragmentary ideas with slower melodic lines. The second section is a type of Scherzo and the piece ends with a beautifully moving lament inspired by a line from Frederico Garcia Lorca’s Llanto por Ignacio Sanchez Mejias.
