Harvey Sollberger presents Hara for solo alto flute.

Sollberger's Hara, composed in 1978, is informed on a number of levels by the Japanese concept of Hara - literally, the region of the body which lies just below the navel, or spiritually the center of the body and the primal life force. The piece's physical relationship to Japanese culture resides in the incorporation of sounds from that culture's musical world into a twentieth-century musical language. Many of the techniques of tone production are found in Japanese music - inhalation into the instrument, key clicks, modification of tones with the tongue, embouchure and throat, and so on.

Duration:11'30. For the advanced player. Oversized score.
