Holy, Holy, Holy

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.

This flute solo begins with the piano playing a gentle motif of the theme and then joined in with the solo line playing the theme in a straight forward fashion. The theme is now stated in a modified manner while the soloist exudes a moving obbligato line which adds more excitement to the piece. The piece concludes with the latter section of the first section and then settles into a solemn repose.

This piece would serve well as a meditation. Beginning with a quiet Celtic lilt, the center section is stronger and bolder. After several bell effects, the piece returns to the mood of the beginning.

This solo piece with piano is presented in a straight-forward manner for the younger player with some altered pitches for interest.
