What Child Is This?
$4.95
This flute solo begins with the piano using figures that are very harp-like and then joined by the flute in a plaintive manner. It continues in this manner for some time while modulating through various keys. The tune is then embellished with the piano accompanying in a hocket motif. The final section is then presented in a lilting manner with the piano once again acting in a harp fashion. The ending is a final peaceful rendition.
