Summary of this Score
This collection celebrates the "Golden Age" of French music, a period when the flute established itself as a privileged voice, capable of supple arabesques, sensual colors and naturally expressive singing lines. Designed for flutists from their fourth year of study onwards, it draws on the rich catalogues of Editions Leduc and Heugel to offer a programme that is both instructive and captivating.
It features several now-essential works, imbued with immediate lyricism: Fauré's Sicilienne and Ravel's Pièce en forme de Habanera, presented here in a remarkable transcription by Theodore Doney. Two repertoire favorites, Orientale and Sicilienne by Philippe Gaubert, perfectly round out this world of singing lines and harmonic elegance.
The selection then alternates between original works and high-quality arrangements: Roussel's Aria for flute and piano showcases refined writing, while Marcel Moyse's arrangement based on Jacques Ibert's Histoires opens a delicate interlude. Also noteworthy is the successful adaptation of Hahn's À Chloris, along with famous works such as Le Petit Nègre by Debussy, alongside rarer gems—particularly by Pierné and Bozza—with irresistible charm. An ideal collection for expanding one's repertoire, refining one's French style and developing expressiveness with piano accompaniment.
