Absurd!
Composer: Audrey Podmore
Instruments:
Flute & Piano
A tune with 'lyrics' sung by a swinging lion -purely for the soloist's amusement. This is a chance for 'jazzers' to differentiate between straight and swing quavers - more than the playback can do! There is an option to improvise in the unaccompanied section (on suggested pitches) and also to end the piece before the unaccompanied section, if preferred.
Audio: Absurd!

PFS039P
Woods in Spring
Composer: Audrey Podmore
Instruments: Flute/Treble Recorder
& Piano
Folk-like melodies to play together. Then try out the many suggestions for the flute to decorate the melody and improvise new tunes. The attractive and fairly easy piano part makes for an enjoyable ensemble experience with pianists of moderate achievements. Flutists who have played it as written, at an earlier stage, can return to it later to develop their creative ideas. Exploration of this sort is an enjoyable way of preparing for the more mature approach to repertoire required post- Grade 5.
