In 1750, Müthel went to Leipzig to become the last pupil of no-table composer J.S Bach and was even given the opportunity to notate his final works before his death. Afterwards, Müthel traveled to meet and collaborate with other composers such as Johann Christoph Altnikol, Johann Adolf Hasse, and CPE Bach where their friendship and correspondence lasted a lifetime. Most of Müthel’s compositions are instrumental with a mix of his original style and a little influence of Bach’s. In fact, none of his works were published until after his death. His Sonata for Flute and Basso Continuo is unique in its structure unlike other pieces written of its time. Instead of the sonata following the standard fast-slow-fast movement structure, the piece begins with an elegant Adagio movement fol-lowed by Allegro ma non troppo, and ending with a sweet Cantabile. Each move-ment requires the performer to be skilled with contrasting dynamics and extra embellishments of trills, turns, and more.Sonata Appasionata for Solo Flute, Op. 140SIGFRID KARG-ELERT(1877-1933)Sigfrid Karg-Elert was a very notable German composer in the early 20th century. Receiving his education at the Leipzig Conservatory, Karg-Elert was a piano per-former who grew into composition after being fascinated with the harmonium (a reed organ). His compositions were mainly for the harmonium and organ, but his importance in the flute repertoire are his Thirty Caprices, Op. 107, in dedication to his colleague, Carl Bartuzat. A lot of Karg-Elert’s works were French influenced and praised in France, England, and the US, but in his home country of Germany, his works were mostly neglected even into his death in 1933. The Sonata Appasionata is a one-movement sonata form work that opens up with a primary theme that is actually split apart and ends in a chromatic sequence. His use of these chromatic sequences is used throughout each transition in the devel-opment of the piece, which gives the soloist a challenge to be extremely technical each second. The second theme is marked sehr ausdrucksvoll (very expressive) where the soloist changes timbre in the middle of the melodic line while continuing a lyrical and romantic feel. Sonata No. 3 for Flute and PianoPHILIPPE GAUBERT(1879-1941)As a composer, conductor, and flutist, Philippe Gaubert was one of the primary ex-ponents of the French flute school. Studying under flute pedagogue Paul Taffanel and composition with Raoul Pugno, he also paralleled a conducting career with the Paris Conservatory Orchestra. As a “weekend composer” Gaubert completed 80 works which several have become important in flute repertoire, including his Flute & Piano Sonata No. 3.Composed in 1933, the Troisieme Sonata was originally written for Jean Boulze the principal flutist of the Paris Opera. The first Allegretto movement is structured in ABA form with a sweet and lyrical theme contrasted with a slightly slower and passionate theme that appears after. The next movement, Intermede Pastoral, is a soft and luscious movement that allows the flute and piano to produce colors of sound in a relaxing state. In contrast to the second movement, the Joyeux – Al-legretto ends the sonata with a bright and happy theme that appears at least 19 times throughout the movement. Sonatina for Flute & PianoELDIN BURTON(1913-1979)A Georgia native, Eldin Burton took his composition studies at the Julliard School in New York. His Sonatina for Flute and Piano was originally a piano solo for his composition class, but after being acquainted with flutist, Samuel Baron, he creat-ed the flute arrangement in dedication to him. Baron premiered the piece in 1947, and a year later it won the composition contest of the New York Flute Club. Burton was awarded a contract and publication of his works by Schirmer Publishings, but the Sonatina is the only one of his works published and is still read today.The Sonatina is of three movements, starting with the Allegretto that’s based on a bold 4-bar phrase that transforms into a heroic theme of fast-paced runs and crescendos. The Andantino Sognando is a tad bit of a contrast to the first since it is described to be dreamingly. The theme is then interrupted with an abrupt flash of notes that slightly echo the previous material in the first movement, but luckily the Sognando appears once again as it softly dissipates into nothing. The Allegro giocoso ends the piece with a flamenco feel and challenges the performer with the use of accents and technicality as it ends on a very high note. Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano (with double bass and drums)CLAUDE BOLLING(b. 1930)French pianist and composer, Claude Bolling, was first known to be a jazz prodigy. His ability to perform and compose made Bolling an active musician in the jazz and film scene in his collaborations with Rex Stewart, Buck Clayton, Lionel Hamp-ton, as well as classical flutist Jean Pierre Rampal. His collaboration with Rampal allowed Bolling to create “Crossover Music” which mixed the classical and jazz genre together. The Flute and Jazz Piano Trio was composed in 1973 and com-pletely written out purposely for prominent classical performers instead of being improvised.“Baroque and Blue” opens up with an imitative counterpoint between the flute and piano, with the piano, bass, and drums responding with a blues style. The conver-sation alternates back and forth in a swing style and lively tempo throughout the movement. The last movement, “Veloce” is the spirited conclusion of the piece going at a fast/lively tempo with plenty of velocity.BiographyCatherine Flinchum has been a member and principal player of the Kennesaw State University Orchestra and Wind Ensemble since 2010.
