Flute,Piano - Digital Download SKU: A0.973022 Composed by Francis Kayali. 20th Century,Concert,Contemporary,Jazz. Score and part. 23 pages. Francis Kayali #4986419. Published by Francis Kayali (A0.973022). The Intermezzo for flute and piano was written specially for flutist Rebecca Jeffreys. The Prelude begins with an extended piano solo. Once the flute enters, the waltz-like qualities of the music emerge. The two instruments trade off a whirling gesture until the movement ends in a celebratory mood. The Nocturne is peaceful, dreamy, and nostalgic, alternating between warmth and icy drafts. In its eerie middle section, one could imagine a setting akin to that of Marc Chagall’s 1913 painting The Fiddler which depicts a snowy Belorussian village. Finally, with its jazzy melody, funk-like bass line, and erratic rhythm, the last movement, Capriccio, is over in a minute, but it is a workout for both flutist and pianist!
