Marilyn Bliss's many awards include a Charles Ives Prize from the American Academy/Institute of Arts and Letters, an ASCAP Young Composers Award, Newly Published Flute Music awards from the National Flute Association, and commissions from the Azure Ensemble, the Philadelphia Art Alliance, the Powell Quartet, the flutists James Zellers, James Pellerite, and Nina Assimakopoulos, and the National Flute Association. About her orchestral piece Huatzu Hill, the Boston Globe said '...a series of rich landscapes the colors sharp, the feelings powerfully concentrated, the language eloquent, the expression precise.' Records International Catalogue calls her piano work Fantasies 'a virtuosic, highly varied work, fantastic and wide-ranging.' Her Rima for piccolo and piano has been used as a standard contest piece for the National Flute Association s piccolo competition.

Chameleon, for flute, 'cello, and piano, was written in 1980-81 and takes as its inspiration the remarkable adaptability of the chameleon to its surroundings. Its analogue in this piece is a motive, A-E-Bb-Gb, that is continuously present in various guises throughout the many changing moods of the trio.

Includes score and parts.
