Conti, Michael Les Jeunes Oiseaux au Ciel Azure for flute and piano $16.95

Young Birds in the Azure Sky uses techniques inspired by Messiaen. Materials are derived using Messiaen’s Modes of Limited Transposition and the melody alludes to nature and birdsongs. The rhythmic components of this piece (Non-retrogradable rhythms, Additive rhythms and rhythmic ostinatos) evoke the rhythmic elements Messiaen used in works such as Quatuor pour la fin du temps and Truangalila-symphonie. Moderately difficult, ca. 10 min.

Score
Feyen, Dagmar The Storyteller for alto flute and piano $12.95

A fun jazzy piece with a main theme in a mixed meter. The second theme is a lyrical melody for the flute with a funky accompaniment in the piano part that builds up to an improvisatory section in Latin style and a cadenza for the flute. After that the main theme is restated and leads to a spectacular Coda. Collegiate or professional level; ca. 5 min.
