Conrad Setó, “Estudi 2020”, for solo flute

This gem was written for me in the first hours of the year 2021. I can only be grateful to my dear friend and composer Conrad Setó. It is not a study in the academic meaning of the word but more a caprice or a pictorical “équise” in music. Be this year peaceful and fulfilling for all of us.

New youtube playlist: Flute studies

Due to lockdown restrictions and online teaching, I have been recording several educational videos including flute studies during the last weeks. Today I uploaded some of my favourite studies to my youtube channel in a new playlist, with the hope it is useful both for students and teachers. Enjoy!

Jonathan G. Bayley, Two pieces for alto flute

I am glad to share with you some more excerpts of my latest CD “Flute Spirit”. Here you have Jonathan G. Bayley’s “Two pieces” for alto flute: From Within and Music for Pan.

From the late 1970s and early 1980s Bayley studied at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity (Banff, Alberta, Canada) and it was the jazz flutist Paul Horn who introduced him to the alto flute. The first of the pieces seeks an inner sound, integrated with the breathing, in a meditating mood. The second one, dedicated to Jeanne Baxtresser shows a dance character in its form and articulation, while alluding to the mythological legend of Pan and Syrinx, so closely linked to the flute repertoire.

Please sit back and enjoy!
