Little Duet (score form)

Little Duet by John D. McDonald
For two flutes
Published by Encore Music
Score only

Dedicated to Ethel Farney and her students, this duet is based on the poem “Six Variations” by Denise Levertov.  The poem is:
Two flutes! How close
to each other they move
in mazing figures,
never touching, never
breaking the measure, as gnats dance in
summer haze all afternoon, over
shallow water sprinkled
with mottled blades of willow–
two flutes!
