K. Hasselman: Mazurka Op.31: Flute: Instrumental Album
This item is not available anymore with the seller Musicroom
This Mazurka with its characteristic emphasis on the second beat of the bar consists basically of a rondo theme separated by episodes in (mostly) related keys. When I first heard it it occurred to me that it would work particularly well for the flute accompanied by piano (or indeed harp). The harp's basic key is Cb major making flat keys more natural for the instrument. The key here is Bb minor which has a warmth well-suited to the flute although the piece does touch on Db major F minor and C major before ending triumphantly in Bb major.The first performance was given by Philip Tinker in March 2006.
