Two Little Finches
Kling, H

Henri Kling presents Two Little Finches, here arranged for two piccolos and flute choir by Robert Rainford.

This piece is a light hearted dance like composition that features a solo pair of piccolos. After some introductory fanfares and 'horn call' passages, the two soloists enter with a bird song like cadenza passage featuring calls and responses between them. This then leads into the main section of the piece, a jovial polka with the two soloists in rhythmic unison on top of the texture. Various bird-song features are included, simple repeating melodies in thirds, rapid repeated articulations of the same note, and flowing arpeggios. A great piece to feature the piccolo!

Instrumentation: 2 solo piccolos, 3 flutes, alto flute, bass flute. Optional included parts: 4th concert flute, contralto flute, contrabass flute, and double contrabass flute.
