elegie

2013 | 5’ | flute solo

Through the years, I developed a liking towards extended techniques. Not for their virtuosity, but very much for the expressive qualities they have. It was originally written for instrumentation class to discover more possibilities of the flute, but I expanded it into elegie, an expressionist take on the classic lamento bass motive.

Performed by Kees van der Heijdt, flute.
