Description

Funf Duos by Friedrich Ebert
for 2 flutes
Published by Zimmermann
Includes 2 scores

The opening movement is a quick, playful allegro molto in a 2/4 metre.  The racy melody reappears in ever new combinations.  The heading movement is followed by an andante-a plain, song-like movement. The third duet bears the title vivace giococo-a boisterous scherzo characterized by a change between triplet and straight semi-quaver passages as well as short appoggiaturas. The movement ends in a surprisingly calm manner, fading into the distance as it were.  The fourth piece is an andante with 2 variations. The song-like theme proceeds at a measured pace.
