In the Spotlights

A jazzy piece with a slow introduction for alto recorder and a fast-paced, lively section for soprano recorder.

The introduction establishes the bass line, which plays a major role in the fast section. In this section, a beautiful, full tone and a good sense of rubato are particularly important.

In the fast section, the challenges lie in having an excellent sense of rhythm and very good technical skills in fingering and articulation.

The piano accompaniment also presents some challenges.

The piece is ideally suited as a concert piece for performances or competitions.
