Mcdowall Song and Dance-Five Pieces for Flute and Piano-Hunt Edition
About
These delightful pieces evoke different moods and lands through song and dance. The collection opens with a thoughtful Moonlight Sarabande followed by a haunting number in a quirky 5/8 rhythm, On the Steps of Montmartre. Roumanian Song transports us to the folk culture of the Transylvanian mountains. A passionate, South American Mango Tango gives us the feel of hot, lazy afternoons in Buenos Aires. In the final movement ‘Jigging’ we are definitely back North of the Border with the swirl of the pipes and the Highland swing of the Scottish fiddle.
