Description
ONE EASY PIECE

I was asked to write another piece for solo flute (flutists are proliferating like crab lice; of course, it's an easy instrument to play and light to carry) and piano, only this one had to be at a student level, and the piano part also had to be simple.

Easy enough, but I'm afraid that I became carried away and threw in some of my favorite nasty ragtime chords in spots -- m'y bad. I threw this together within four hours. (It's not a great piece of music. I may not be good, but I am fast!))

What I yet aspire to is music that can actually be performed by humans on analog (as opposed to digital) instruments. It's an easy piece to learn and the sheet music is available for a nominal fee at my SibeliusMusic page where you can also watch the music go by as the tune plays. For young players (or dwarves) with small hands, also available is a simplified piano version where the widest interval is a sixth.

Attention sound onanists! This file is simply a recording of the MIDI playback in Sibelius. GFYS!

This would be...
...harder to play than you are letting on. The "canned" sound of tje Sibelius may even work in this number's favor. It has a tinkly sound that is somewhat like a circus waltz. The structure of this composition is quite easy to get into and provides a certain comfort zone for the listener. ... First of your numbers I've listened to. I will be listening more. Thanks for this one.
peace.
Paul
