Inspired by
one of the flute
repertoire’s loveliest
melodies, SICILIANO
(REIMAGINED) is a gently
adapted
“jazz-flavored”
setting of the slow
movement from Bach’s
Sonata in Eb Major. Solo
parts are provided both
for C Flute and for Alto
Flute. With a fairly
close rendering of the
authentic flute line and
more contemporary chords
in the piano part,
SICILIANO (REIMAGINED) is
an inviting way to play
music with a modernized
jazz sound, while reading
traditional classical
notation.
Inspired by
one of the flute
repertoire’s loveliest
melodies, Siciliano
(Reimagined) never strays
far from the source,
except for its
reharmonization.
Occasional jazz-infused
touches give the melody a
fresh perspective,
without diluting its
purity. I am always moved
by how beautifully the
music of the 18th century
and contemporary music
coexist.Performers may
play this arrangement in
the Baroque style.
