Tetractys Publishing presents 'How to Keep Butterflies in Happy, Carefree Countenance' for solo bass flute by composer Edward Nesbit. 

The composer writes about this piece, 'A set of five short movements for solo bass flute, this piece takes as its starting point a passage from the novel 'Milkman' by Anna Burns. 

'The piece is inspired by the playfulness and naivete of its title. The first two movements constitute a pair of contrasting fragments to be played together without a break, and this pattern is repeated with the third and fourth movements. The final, more extended movement stands alone as a meditative close to the set.'
