The first
of the Two Pieces for
flute and harp or piano
accompaniment, “1. The
swans”? is a lovely
short piece composed by
Henri Busser. Really
melodious, this piece is
perfect to work on the
flexibility of the tone
and a good training to be
able execute pieces more
difficult. Written mainly
in A key, not often used
by flutists, and starting
Andantino moderato, the
piece symbolizes the
swans, riding on a lake.
It features an intro, a
main theme in [A] which
comes back A tempo in [C]
and a final Piú
moderato, finishing with
a really high trill. Some
difficulties, such as the
A key and the range used
on this piece will
require an intermediate
technique: difficulty is
rated at 5. This first
piece is followed by the
second one: “?The
squirrels.” Henri
Busser (1872-1913) is a
French classical composer
and organist. He was a
professor at the Paris
Conservatoire and a
member of the Académie
française. He wrote a
ballet, numerous operas
and chamber music.
