A woodwind quartett scored for flutes, clarinets, and other woodwind instruments, this piece presents itself in a gentle, thought provoking manner. The middle section is faster, giving a heightened sense of thought worthiness.
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 variation of the original theme to a higher register giving a sense of intensity and then ends with a solemn motive.
Score for four flutes the piece openings with a quasi round device and then establishes a more straight forward rendition of the tune. The final section becomes quite florid with intricately woven countrapuntal voicing.
Written for flute, oboe, clarinet or saxophone this pieces creates a solemn presence by the way it interweaves the various parts together. It would work well for a meditation.
