The music of Québec has been historically rich in cultural diversity, with Celtic and French influences. Québécois composers of the early 1900's were no less inspired by their closest neighbor, the United States. Ragtime emerged at the turn of the 20th century in the U. S. as a popular style of African American dance music, and was an important predecessor to Jazz. During that time, large numbers of African Americans were immigrating north to Canada in search of a better life. With them, they brought music that would be embraced by Canadian composers such as Jean-Baptiste Lafrenière and his contemporaries.
For flutists who enjoy expanding their repertoire into a variety of musical styles, this collection of ragtime pieces provides an opportunity to explore a genre that is largely underrepresented this instrument. Ragtime is a quirkly, lively, and entertaining style of music which lends itself well to the character of the flute's voice.
Includes 11 pieces, with parts for flute and piano.
