Flamenco is an art form involving highly dramatic music and dance. The form is strongly associated with the Andalusia region of southern Spain. Its actual origins are less clear, though historians theorize that gypsies brought the predecessors of flamenco to the region as they migrated from India prior to the 15th century. The form took on traits from cultures that the gypsies encountered in Andalusia, including Spanish, Sephardic, Islamic, and Moorish musical traditions. Over the centuries, Spain's ruling classes undertook systematic persecutions of populations who did not agree with their religious ideals, forcing gypsies to take refuge in Andalusia's isolated mountain regions to survive. Not surprisingly, the topics of the gypsies' songs frequently touch on longing, despair, rage, anguish, and hope.

Suenos de Flamenco (Flamenco Dreams) portrays a young gypsy couple who dance the flamenco with great longing, passion, and vigor. The piece was commissioned by Duo Montagnard (Joseph Murphy, saxophone, and Matthew Slotkin, guitar). I made this edition of the piece for flute and guitar in 2020.

J'ai ajouté une partie de flûte à deux pièces bien connues pour guitare solo en si mineur – l'Étude Op. 35, n° 22 de Fernando Sor et le mouvement final de La Catedral d'Agustín Barrios Mangoré – Allegro Solemne. Le guitariste joue les pièces de Sor et de Barrios dans leur forme originale, tandis que le flûtiste superpose mon nouveau matériel.

La Catedral Sumergida a été commandée par Emily Andrews et Francisco Correa pour un album de ma musique pour flûte et guitare (Deux-Elles, 2025). La première représentation a eu lieu au Michael Tippett Centre, Bath Spa University, le 2 mai 2024.
