E002b Chanson De Nuit/Chanson De Matin - Elgar, E. (PDF DOWNLOAD) flute using its full rangeOpus 15 Nos. 1&2 Elgar completed this pair of pieces, originally for Violin and Piano, shortly after his "Enigma Variations". "Chanson De Nuit" begins and ends with a rich tune from the Alto Flute, using its full range, before the C flutes take up the tunes in the middle section. The possibly more famous "Chanson De Matin" is lighter in mood, with the whole quartet enjoying moments of light and shade. A perfect pair of pieces for a recital. Grading: 6
