Mario Zafred's Concerto for flute and orchestra (1951) is here presented in a reduction by the composer for flute and piano.

Zafred's musical language evolved over his lifetime from an early avant-garde to a later, more accessible style that drew freely from classical forms and various musical ideas - audience-pleasing while still invoking strange forms of impressionism and modernism. His flute concerto, written midway through his life displays those latter tendencies brilliantly in its three movements. Strangely, though the thick, beautiful harmonies, intriguing counterpoint, and extraordinarily strong flute line instantly engage, the Concerto is rarely played and has remained nearly unknown.

Duration: 18'. For advanced players.
