Parasol

“Parasol”, for alto flute and piano (2002), evokes the by-gone era of the English Music Hall Parasol, and conjures up visions of girls dressed in white and gas lights

There isn’t very much music for alto flute with the direction ‘Lightly (in your best Music Hall style)’ so I was intrigued to play this piece. It’s such fun! It’s not difficult and stays safely in the low register with the accompaniment adding the interest. Scottish Blues is in the same style. Great demonstration or encore material.
