Salut D'Amour - Flute And Piano: Flute: Instrumental Work

Elgar's delightful Salut d'Amour one of his earliest successes dates from 1889 when Elgar had just turned 30: this proved to be a year of great happiness for him for at that time he married Caroline Alice Roberts - a lady who was to mean so much to him as man and musician. It is not too fanciful to hear in this charming piece a musical manifestation of his love for her.This arrangement for flute and piano retains al the beauty of the original.
