Pi�ce Pour Flute Seule

Description

Composed in 1936 by Jacques Ibert (1890-1962), a neoclassical composer who won the Prix de Rome in 1919, Pi�ce for Solo Flute was premiered by Marcel Moyse. This publication was written in three movements in two contrasting themes. The first theme is a slow lyrical melody compared to the second one which is much faster. The third movement of Pi�ce for Solo Flute brings back the first theme again but with more ornamentation this time. Jacques Ibert (1890-1962) also composed many symphonic suites, operas and seven orchestras, including 'Angelique' (1926) and 'Divertissement' (1930). He also was in charge of the Acad�mie de France in the Villa M�dicis (Roma) and was later administrator for the Paris Opera.
