“TRANSPORTING TONES”

. . earthy . . . exotic . . . ethereal . .

A musicale drawn from French, Latin and South American origins, this music will transport your ear with the silvery tones of flute coupled with the infinite variety of colors and musical richness offered by classical guitar and piano. Their supple sounds blend perfectly with the stand-out nature of the flute’s melody and flowing virtuosity.

~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

With this unusual combination of instruments comes music of transcendent colors.

The inimitable Sonata for Flute & Piano by Francis Poulenc;

The exotic Spanish impressionism in Fantasia for Guitar & Piano, by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco;

The earthy passions of Astor Piazzolla’s Histoire du Tango – Bordel 1900, Café 1930, and Nightclub 1960, for Guitar and Flute;

Spiced with individual solo works by Claude Debussy, Ernesto Lecuona, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Fernando Bustamente, Jose Merlin;

Jacques Ibert‘s scintillating Entr’Acte for flute and guitar;

The rarely heard, yet utterly masterful French-styled Sonatine for Flute & Piano, by Walter Gieseking;

And a special arrangement for the trio, of the unique and beloved Bachianas Brasileiras No.5, by Heitor Villa-Lobos.
