Andante and Rondo op. 25

Doppler, F

International Music Company presents Doppler's 'Andante et Rondo', op. 25 for two flutes and piano edited by Jean-Pierre Rampal.

Albert Franz Doppler, following the example of Paganini, was both a composer and a virtuoso performer. Taught by his composer and oboist father, Joseph, Franz made his Vienna debut as a flutist at the age of 13 and embarked on several concert tours, often accompanied by his brother Carl, also a highly accomplished flutist and composer. In 1853, Doppler, his younger brother, Karl, and Ferenc Erkel were all involved in establishing the first Hungarian symphony orchestra. Doppler is most famous for his works for flute, including Fantaisie pastorale hongroise and Andante et Rondo. Andante et Rondo, composed in 1874, is written for two flutes and piano. This piece is no exception to the Hungarian influence present in many of Doppler s works. The first movement consists of traditional romantic lyricism while the second movement is a jaunty, light-hearted rondo.
