A Sprightly Dance - flute and piano
Publisher Description:
This contemporary feature is an excellent contest solo for the flutist and a great step into performing with contemporary harmony and piano accompaniment. A Sprightly Dance was written as a finale piece for the composer's graduate composition recital.
The impetus to compose A Sprightly Dance was a competition that focused on writing pieces for any combination of flute, soprano, and piano, with the time constraint of three minutes. This was to celebrate the work of the French composer Claude Debussy and the plethora of miniature pieces he wrote. A Sprightly Dance displays a wide array of harmonic colors and rhythmic interchange, despite the limited length and instrumental forces.
A Sprightly Dance won an Honorable Mention from the NFA Newly Published Music Competition in 2015.
