Product Description

The transverse flute rarely appears in Swiss folk music. This may be due to the apparent contrast between the instrument, which is focused on virtuosity and elegance, and the simple rhythm and rather simple melodies of this folk music. The present twelve folk dances in the Swiss style for two flutes and piano, which are based thematically and melodically on the twelve months, attempt to overcome this apparent contradiction.

Each dance is accompanied by a haiku, a Japanese form of poetry, which, like a breeze, describes a content. They are simple, deep in content and, like the dances, are thematically based on the individual months. This creates a musical-literary field of tension between music and language.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
