16 Miniatures for Flute and Piano by Tilmann Dehnhard

Dehnhard’s compositions are special for their blending of colours, changing shades, and evolving rhythms. These short and light miniatures are like small works of art, filled with expressive melodies that bring joy in classes and shine on concert stages. Each piece paints gentle pictures of positive emotions, quiet moments, and more, revealing new aspects with every breath.

The music depicts various scenes, from ocean sprays to glimmering gemstones and mythical dragons, creating a kaleidoscope of sound and colour. The pieces flow effortlessly, capturing moods and sparking vivid images in the mind. With inspiring melodies and jazzy harmonies, these modern flute miniatures offer a delightful repertoire using traditional techniques in the first two octaves.

The accompanying CD provides full recordings and play-along tracks, enhancing the overall experience of this edition.
