Down By The Riverside (solo Bb/C)

This solo with piano begins with the strains of a lion’s roar. Next enters Daniel in a simple fashion followed by a statement in a triumphal march. The lions return-Daniel prevails.

An accompanied flute solo which begins with a piano introduction and then presents a modified melody with an extended cadence in the piano. A modulation occurs where the solo line presents a new theme built off from the orinigal theme with another modulation lifting the tonality to a higher reference and then ends with a solemn motive.

This solo with piano follows a simple theme and variation form. It gives the young soloist the opportunity to play many styles in a short framework.
