Description
Parabasis by J. Gill
For flute and piano
Published by Jeremy Gill
An extremely difficult 26 minite workout divided in seven movements. Kommation begins in a reasonable and slow manner, quarter note=52. Anapestes(tacet) requires an extremely good pianist with its virtuosic passages. Pnigos takes the flute to many leaps and bounds at a blazing tempo. Cordax puts the brakes on the previous movement with a somewhat melodic and chromatic feel. Comoedia flys along in a quick 3/8 time signature, pitting triplet patterns against eight note passages. Mania demonstrates chromatic scale work starting in the lower range of the flute moving to the highest. Catharsis returns to the original tempo of the first movement. Written for Mimi Stillman.
