In the Pink for Solo Flute with Piano Accompaniment

If you love great Mancini tunes and you love to play a few notes this is definitely the book for you! Most of these classic numbers have a flute twist with the result that some of them are really quite tricky. Speedy Gonzales is fast and furious with a central section that uses major sevenths and flutter tongued chromatic scales, Pie in the Face Polka is a swirl of arpeggios and the Cameo for Flute 'for James' is quite a workout. There are some more peaceful moments too with Breakfast at Tiffany's just having a flourish at the end. My favourite is the Medley with beautiful melodies arranged sensitively with a lovely decoration of Charade in the middle. The combination of Henry Mancini and James Galway is made in heaven!
