Par UEBAYASHI YUKO. Contemporary Japanese composer, Yuko Uebayashi moved to Paris in 1998. Uebayashi 's works have been met with much success in both Japan and France, Suite For Flute And Cello being no exception. Flautist, Jean Ferrandis described Uebayashi 's music as 'gems that, although they are so different, they yet belong to the same world, a world of vivacity, dreams, tenderness, humour, and one that is subtly contradicted by vehemence, virtuosity, melancholy and sorrow. ' Suite For Flute And Cello is made up of six movements with a typical performance lasting around 18minutes. Suite For Flute And Cello is modern in style, exploiting tonality, rhythm and the ensemble. Uebayashi 's Suite For Flute And Cello is a sublime addition to the advanced repertoire of the instruments./ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière et Violoncelle

Ecrite pour flûte et violoncelle, cette courte pièce virtuose fait suite à ma discotoccata pour clarinette et violoncelle. Mais si cette première pièce était une danse des vivants, ma toccata nocturne est une danse des ombres parfois joyeuses, souvent inquiétantes. Un thème en valeurs irrégulières est superposé à une pulsation régulière et la polyrythmie qui en résulte se permute entre la flûte et le violoncelle. Des éclats de voix dans la nuit, des murmures, des bruits étouffés parcourent la pièce jusqu?au cri final où le thème est hurlé par la flûte sous les harmonies caverneuses du violoncelle.
