Building on the success of his Sonatine de Giverny for piccolo (114-41088), Daniel Dorff gives us FLASH!, the much-anticipated sequel. This piece hits the ground running and keeps up a flashy, quick pace, allowing players to show off their chops with plenty of jazzy flourishes. FLASH! has already been programmed for performances by piccolo legend Walfrid Kujala. It will also be performed by young virtuoso Kate Prestia-Schaub at the 2009 National Flute Association convention and the 2009 International Piccolo Symposium. For the advanced player. Duration: 6'30_______________________________________FLASH! for Piccolo and PianoFLASH! was designed as a flashy showpiece for Kate Prestia-Schaub who premiered it at the 2009 International Piccolo Symposium, where it won 1st Prize in the IPS biennial composers’ competition. FLASH! uses a jazz-tinged accompaniment and challenging rhythms to create a bravura piece based on scales and arpeggios that lay well under the fingers. Walfrid Kujala later commissioned a band version of the accompaniment, and Sarah Jackson then commissioned an orchestral accompaniment, all available from Presser.
