A welcome addition to the bass flute repertoire, Dorff’s 14-minute sonata is designed as two pairs of slow-fast movements. While composed as a complete 4-movement sonata, either half may be performed alone as a 7-minute recital work. The movement titles are: I. Sprawling, burbling; II. Sparkling, glistening; III. Under Winter; and IV. Spring Spirits.When Peter Sheridan commissioned me to write a piece for bass flute and piano, his only requests were a sonata-like multi-movement work, and some kind of reference to New York, where we both grew up. Just the thought of a bass flute, with its broad and mighty airstream, already reminded me of the mighty Hudson River: from the dense woods of upstate New York, through the beautiful landscapes of New Paltz and Poughkeepsie, down through the celebrated Manhattan waterway.As I daydreamed how to build a sonata inspired by the Hudson, I thought of its deep primal nature carved by the Ice Age, and the life within the river and on its shores long before humans arrived. I thought of how the river’s magnetism drew Native Americans who honored and built their lives around it. I thought of beautiful trees and wildlife, the annual cycles of ecosystems, and the natural symbiosis between the river itself, the life within, and the life on land spawned by the river’s resources.I wondered what if Thoreau had sat by the Hudson rather than by Walden Pond; I wondered what if Hesse had set Siddhartha in the Hudson Valley with this river as his metaphor for the flow of life and time.I wondered whether the sonata should flow from north to south, or have chronological references. I wondered if I should allude to the many poets and painters who have drawn inspiration from the mighty Hudson. Every thought led to the river’s essence, its own spirit and life — flowing through raw nature, from skinny trickles to mightiness spawning cities; supporting subtle life, and becoming a central commons for human societies.The subtitle Spirit of the Hudson brings it all together.* * *The sonata is built in 4 movements, with formal inspiration from the Baroque: A slow Mvt. 1 “Sprawling, burbling†leads directly to the rapid Mvt. 2 “Sparkling, glistening,†followed by another slow-fast pair: Mvt. 3 “Under Winter†which leads directly into Mvt. 4 “Spring Spirits.†In addition to performances of the complete sonata, either pair of movements may be performed on its own for a shorter concert segment.SONATA (SPIRIT OF THE HUDSON) was premiered at the International Low Flutes Festival in April 2018 by its commissioner, bass flutist Peter Sheridan, with Hyeeun Hahm as pianist.

This collection contains works from the so-called “Belle Époqueâ€, the time period right around the turn of the 20th century which have been arranged for flute and piano by Franco Cesarini. It includes pieces by Dukas and Massenet, two early works by Ravel that are on the cusp of the impressionistic period and compositions by Bizet and Saint-Saëns which represent the late-romantic period. The book comes with a CD which contains a demo of each piece, followed by the piano accompaniment which you can play along with.Er is geen ander tijdperk waarin emoties zo sterk naar voren kwamen als de 19e-eeuwse romantische periode. In die tijd vervolmaakte de instrumentenbouwer Theobald Böhm de dwarsfluit, die de vorm kreeg waar we nu aan gewend zijn. Defluit was bij de componisten uit de romantiek een bijzonder geliefd instrument. Dit album bevat werken die grotendeels zijn ontstaan tijdens de zogeheten belle époque -de periode van rond de eeuwwisseling (van 1900). In het boekvind je stukken van Dukas en Massenet, evenals twee vroege werken van Ravel, in impressionistische stijl gecomponeerd, terwijl de composities van Bizet en Saint-Saëns de laat-romantische periode vertegenwoordigen.Op de meegeleverdecd staat van elk stuk een demoversie, gevolgd door een play-alongversie met alleen de pianobegeleiding.Diese Ausgabe, die einige romantische Sätze aus der so genannten Belle Epoque“ in Bearbeitungen für Flöte und Klavier vorstellt, will allen fortgeschrittenen Flötisten die Möglichkeit geben, mehr Musik der Romantik aus der Perspektive eines Solisten kennenzulernen.
