About this arrangement

Flute and Piano SKU: BT.ALHE26698 Composed by Cesar Antonovich Cui. Classical. Book Only. 96 pages. Heugel & Cie #ALHE26698. Published by Heugel & Cie (BT.ALHE26698). French.Russian composer, César Cui (1835-1918) was a member of 'The Five', a group of Russian composers dedicated to the production of a specifically Russian type of music. His 1916 composition for Flute and Piano, Scherzetto, alsoincorporates Russian characteristics. Cui composed for all genres, however, his style was often compared to Robert Schumann or Charles Gounod, rather than his Russian contemporaries, such as Mikhali Glinka. Whilst retainingnationalistic characteristics, Scherzetto makes use of a variety of musical features, including differing articulation, chromaticism, wide leaps and scalic passages. For all intermediate flautists, Cui's Scherzetto provides anexciting, chirpy and varied addition to the repertoire.
