“Ethereal”
‘Fisherman’s Song’ has an ethereal quality to it, particularly in the slow sections. The flute part is intricately embellished and wonderfully virtuosic, showcasing the beauty of the flute’s high register. The pentatonic melody that is introduced at the start (a Cantonese folk style tune) provides an anchor, while a wide array of textures and atmospheres are explored throughout the 4 minutes, ensuring the listener will be captivated throughout.
From the Publisher
Beautifully atmospheric and within reach of advanced students, Fisherman's Song is a poignant addition to every flutist's repertoire. Chen Yi describes the main theme as evocative of the ornamented pentatonic style often found in Cantonese folk songs, with a gentle piano texture supporting the flute's melody.
