Le merle blanc op. 161

Damare, E

Revised by Jean-Louis Beaumadier, Eugene Damare’s ‘Le merle blanc’ Polka-fantaisie op. 161 is a wonderfully written technical showpiece. This piece requires the utmost control in all registers, embouchure flexibility, clean articulation, breath support, as well as exceptional technical facility. Approximately four minutes in length, ‘Le merle blanc’ will keep audiences tapping their toes with excitement. This piece can even serve as an etude for technique building! Damare was a 19th century prolific French composer and flutist.
