Aria E Danza

For Flute And Piano

Peteris Vasks Has Added Two Pieces To The Flute And Piano Repertoire Which Are Well Suited For Both Domestic Music Making And Concert Hall Performances. "Aria" Is A Gentle, Meditative Dialogue Between Flute And Piano In A Minor. The Second Piece, "Danza", Is A Stylised Dance With An Original Rhythm, Archaic Harmony And Playful Melody Rooted In Folkloristic Grounds.
Peteris Vasks Was Born In Latvia In 1946. His Music Often Forms A Symbiosis Of Early And Modern Music Techniques. Here, As In Most Of The Other Works By The Composer, His Love Of Nature Plays A Special Role. Unlike Hardly Any Other Composer, He Gives Nature A Musical Voice.
