This piece was composed during Saint-Säens's flight to London after the Franco-Prussian War, and was premiered in 1872 by flutist Paul Taffanel accompanied by the composer.
?The piece is genial, short and sweet with a lovely flowing piano accompaniment. It has a few brilliant, dramatic cadenza moments, but for the most part is melody and accompaniment.? ?Flute Talk |
