Modern Wind Music Vol 1

From the Publisher

Forsyths Modern Wind Music is a series of volumes containing exciting and challenging, but not unduly difficult, works by talented English composers of current or recent vintage for recital, study or recreation. Each volume includes three works with piano, one unaccompanied piece, and one piece for two or more players of the instrument. This volume for flute has a natural history slant. Lacerta Agilis by Duncan Druce is a portrait of a sand lizard, Michael Balls piece takes as its cue the Greek legend of Philomel who was turned into a nightingale to escape the Wrath of Tereus, whilst Edward Cowies A Lesson For Reed Warblers (for two flutes) is designed for one bird (or flute) to teach the other to sing. The magical solo work in the album is Two Spells by Peter Recine Fricker, and the remaining piece is Nicholas Marshalls rhythmic and jazz-influenced Jump.
