Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso (114-41433)by Camille Saint-SaënsArranged by Denis Bouriakov for Flute and PianoA favorite standard showpiece of the violin repertoire, Camille Saint-Saëns’ Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso is an 8-minute delight, full of catchy melodies and sparkling passagework. The celebrated flute virtuoso Denis Bouriakov of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra has adapted the solo part to become a flute showpiece, as recorded on his 2009 CD of violin repertoire transcribed for flute. Bouriakov’s transcription fits perfectly with the standard orchestral accompaniment as well as the present piano reduction.

He has won numerous awards at many of the world’s most prestigious international flute competitions, including the Jean-Pierre Rampal, Munich ARD, Prague Spring, Carl Nielsen, and Kobe competitions.Denis has made several recordings, including the Bach Double Concerto with William Bennett and English Chamber Orchestra. His first solo CD was released in 2009, including the premiere recording of the Sibelius Violin Concerto on flute, as well as the present transcription of Saint-Saëns’ Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso.
