Asia

Description

Sophie Dufeutrelle’s Asia, for solo flute, is a miniature of oriental inspiration – a landscape with water and light from which a pentatonic song rises, hummed on the edge of a rice paddy.

Asia begins with a glossary of extended techniques for performance. The work exploits the flute with sound and breath sounds, ornamentation, articulation, improvisation and varied dynamics, among other aspects. Ideal for flautists seeking an introduction to modern repertoire and extended techniques.
