Arcadian Melodies Opus 34 for Flute
and for Alto Saxophone 2020
Inspired by Nature
Duration 6:30 minutes
The Australian flautist Jessica Scott had been performing in her concert programs a selection of my flute compositions.
Jessica was particularly interested in the evocative and expressive aspect of my works, which are inspired by nature.
Subsequently, Jessica approached me with a request to compose for her students. This request was for a series of short descriptive pieces for flute and saxophone. She further requested them to be graded starting with the simplest in style and in keys.
In a way it became a tutor whereby Jessica could encourage her students in performance to concentrate on such musical concepts as: articulation, breath control, phrasing, imagination, correct embouchure, rhythm, intervals and so on.
To assist the students’ imagination, each short piece has a title, and is illustrated.
N.B. This musical score is hand written and illustrated by Dawn Nettheim.
