Flute,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.943194 Composed by Robert Cunningham. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and part. 17 pages. Robert E Cunningham #4992663. Published by Robert E Cunningham (A0.943194). Lament for Flute and Piano (1991, rev. 2016) was inspired by the ideals of the Camerata in late sixteenth-century Florence and by the vibrant new musical style to which they gave rise, displayed in the earliest operas at the dawn of the Baroque period. The piece opens with a recitative by the flute, accompanied by continuo-like chords in the piano. A sorrowful aria-like melody follows, and later the flute and piano melodies are interwoven into an expressive duet.
