Fantaisie for Flute and Piano (2025)

  Writing for the flute and piano duo (my very favorite instruments and duo) has long been a dream of mine since I first began composing. However, for a long time, I didn’t have the ability to express my inner musical voice for such a perfect and expressive instrument. Last year, under the guidance of Professor Philip Lasser, I returned to early sketches I had for flute and piano and began shaping the sounds that I believe are close to my heart through these two instruments.

​

  The work was inspired by some of my very favorite composers, including Scriabin, Sancan, Schoenberg, Liebermann, and Hindemith.

​

​

  The work lasts approximately ten minutes and consists of two continuous movements.
