Dieter Ammann was born in Aarau Switzerland in 1962. He grew up in a very musical family. After secondary school he began a course in school music at the Akademie für Schul- und Kirchenmusik in Lucerne. At the same time he studied for several semesters at the Swiss Jazz School in Bern. After this he worked for a period as a musician in improvised music and jazz. He has performed at international festivals including Cologne Willisau Antwerp and Lugano. Recordings and studio sessions brought him into contact with diverse artists such as Eddie Harris and Udo Lindenberg. He then took a degree in theory and composition at the Musikakademie Basel and attended master classeswith Wolfgang Rihm and Witold Lutoslawski.In the 1990s the main focus of Ammann?s work changed to composition. He has received numerous national and international prizes for his orchestral and chamber music works (including from the Aargauer Kuratorium the main prize in the International Composition Competition of the IBLA Foundation New York the Franz Liszt Scholarship awarded by the European Capital of Culture Weimar first prize in the Young Composers in Europe Competition Leipzig and Composers?

Malcolm Arnold wrote this little fantasy in the early 1960s as a present for his children Katherine and Robert to play together. Even as a miniature it has many of the hallmarks of the Arnold style such as the evocative melodic writing together with the occasional dark dissonance. It was written at a time when Arnold was deeply into film music. Perhaps this is why in the famous film Whistle Down the Wind the main theme is for flute/piccolo and turns out to be not entirely dissimilar to the theme found in this fantasy.
