Purple Phobia (Two Flutes)

Purple Phobia (Two Flutes) For Two Flutes & Piano With Optional Bass, by Liesa Norman, Published by Falls House Press.

Score and Part(s)
Performing Ensemble: Flute Duet
Instrumentation: 2 Flutes, Piano, [Bass]. Inspired by Prokofievs Vision Fugitive for solo piano, jazz-inspired classical flute duo Forbidden Flutes Liesa Norman blends crunchy jazz harmonies with the Russian Masters quixotic melodies to create this classical crossover flute duet. Accompanied by a full rhythm section, this composition gives each of the musicians an opportunity to experiment with improvisation in the solo sections, midway through the piece. Purple Phobias tongue-in-cheek title refers to Liesas aversion to the color that conversely happens to be the favorite of her Forbidden Flute partner. You can hear these dueling flutists dance through this pieces sprightly rhythms and chase each other through playful articulated passages on their jazz-influenced classical recording, Take the L Train. For intermediate to advanced players.
