| Camus: Chanson et badinerie pour flute: Flute: Instrumental WorkComposer Pierre Camus (1885-1948) is little known today. However his Chanson and Badinerie is a sublime addition to the Flute's repertoire and proves to be an exciting yet challenging piece for performers. Camus' piece for Flute and Piano accompaniment is in two movements. Chanson (Song) is composed in 6/8 meter and reflects French romantic characteristics in its use of lyrical melodies use of the lower register of the Flute and chromaticism. The Badinerie contrasts with this with a faster tempo 2/4 meter chordal Piano accompaniment and scalic semiquaver flourishes. All of theseelements combine in Camus' Chanson and Badinerie to make for an exciting addition to the advanced flautist's repertoire. Instrumentation : Publisher : |
