Caprice Variations

Description

Caprice Variations includes 20 of the original 51 Rochberg caprices. Christina Jennings chose to include those best suited to the flute while representing the enormous stylistic range of the entire set. Her goal in the transcriptions was to use the flute to its fullest capacity, challenging the player with dynamic, technical, and stylistic extremes: the range of these variations goes from a B1 to an E4 and from pppp to ffz! She made minimal breathing and metronome suggestions, adding these only when they seemed most important.
