Flute Duet Flute - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1090562 Composed by FranƧois Devienne (1759 - 1803). Arranged by Pat Spence. Classical,Contest,Festival,Instructional. Score. 52 pages. Piper Publications #694746. Published by Piper Publications (A0.1090562). Described on the title page when first published in Paris as āDouze Petits Duos facile dāĆ©xĆ©cution, Pour deux FlĆ»tes DĆDIĆS Ć M. Auguste de la Grange COMPOSĆS Par F. DEVIENNEā. Neither the date of composition nor that of the first publication are known but the latter would have been during Devienneās lifetime. Each Duet has two movements and the set of twelve is gently progressive for both parts making part swapping between pupils or pupil and teacher an enjoyable option. The only dynamics indicated are in Duo 9 and I have refrained from adding more as the possibilities are numerous and players will enjoy experimenting for themselves. In editing these duets I have corrected obvious copying mistakes without comment. All editings are indicated either in parentheses ( ) or dashed lines. In the first bar/measure of the Grazioso movement of Duo 4 I have shown the way the turns (grupettos) should be played and continued using the grupetto sign. The layout of the duets avoids page turns during movements except for the last movement of no. 12 which is too long. A nifty page turn from flute 2 should solve this small dilemma.
