An
unapologetically tangoey
Tango, first conceived as
a warm-up piece for a
group of over 150
flautists at the
Birmingham Flute Choir
Festival in March 2024,
and here presented in a
slightly smaller, more
accessible version,
without the Contra
Flutes. The strident
minor key 'A' section
featuring, initially, the
1st and 2nd Flutes
alternates with a more
dolce, lyrical 'B' theme,
which is first presented
by the 4th Flutes and
Alto Flutes. Everybody
gets a chance for melodic
material though, and
there is plenty to work
on in term of dynamics,
articulation and style.
Very enjoyable to play,
and to listen to!
