An adaptation of “Winter Solace”, Winter’s Breath is a brooding, lyrical homage to the darker places in each of us. The breathy, sensual voice of the contrabass flute seemed a perfect fit for the moodiness of the melody and interweaving of the harmonies which never go where you think they will. Filled with clashing accidentals, Winter’s Breath exudes mysterious tonal colors which are perfectly suited for this unique instrument. Thanks to the wonderful low flute specialist, Peter Sheridan , Winter’s Breath is being introduced into the mainstream of the flute repertoire.
