About this product

Product Information

Composer's te: There is something innately human about cherishing one's deepest desires while kwing that they are impossible. Part of the model in this work is also the folly that a flute - the instrument itself - might harbor its own secret wishes. In a universe where all is possible, what might a flute dream?The work uses one of my preferred architectures: a single movement with three sections in the classic form moderate-slow-fast. Although the solo line is unashamedly virtuosic, the intention is t to dazzle but to explore as much dreaminess as possible, filtered through the willfulness of a metal pipe which believes it has limits. There is specific consideration in this music of the opium pipe, from which the term pipe dream originates.
