The product available here for purchase is the solo flute part and piano reduction for John La Montaine's Concerto for Flute. Premiered on April 12, 1981 by Keith Bryan and the National Gallery Orchestra, John La Montaine's Concerto for Flute and Orchestra is best summed up in this review from Paul Hume at The Washington Post: The world premiere of a flute concerto by John La Montaine was the centerpiece. La Montaine clearly had a great time writing the concerto, since he filled it with wit and open, songful beauty. The formal design is neatly broken up into imaginative divisions. There are some exotic touches for woodblocks, and bass clarinet, but the heart of the work lies in the brilliance of the writing for the soloist. The cadenza in the final movement is impressively introduced and beautifully concluded..

A beautiful cantabile song without words, A SONG FROM THE HEART has all of Ewazen’sexpressive elegance, yet is performable by student-level players as well as on formal recitals.Originally composed for Trumpet and Piano, Ewazen created the flute transcription for CindyAnne Broz as the title track for her Albany CD including three Ewazen works.
A SONG FROM THE HEART was originally composed for Trumpet andPiano and is dedicated to Dennis Caron on the occasion of his retirement. It wascommissioned by his wife, Marsha Caron, and was premiered at Dennis’s retirementparty by our mutual friend Charles Schlueter, long-time principal trumpet of theBoston Symphony. A SONG FROM THE HEART is filled with lyricism and richharmonies, as the trumpet line sings and soars over a rich accompaniment.The flute version of this work was written for my dear friend Cindy Anne Broz, for herAlbany CD including first recordings of 3 of my flute pieces. Cindy was wonderfulin helping me with my flute arrangement, as I heard her lovely, bright high register– hence my putting some key passages of the piece up an octave, shaping the phrasestructures to flatter the lyrical flute sonorities.

Sonata; Baroque. Score. 116 pages. Breitkopf and Haertel #MR 2266. Published by Breitkopf and Haertel (BR.MR-2266).

ISBN 9790004488560. 9 x 12 inches.

In the four sonatas presented here for the first time, the royal composer can lay uncontested claim to an above-average talent. The works stand out for their imaginative power, their skill and their stylistic variety. The grand rooms of Sanssouci Palace must have been filled with heartfelt Adagios and brilliant Allegros that confirmed the virtuoso flute technique of the Quantz pupil. The sonatas were recently recorded on CD (Hungaroton) by the editor who, as a performer, is a recognized expert on the music of J. J. Quantz and Frederick the Great.
