Faure Fantasy Op 79

About

This beautiful and virtuosic piece is constructed of two contrasting sections. Originally used as a competition piece for the annual Paris Conservatoire Concours, the Andantino movement is a lyrical, slow movement designed to show off the tone of the flautist and the latter movement is a lively, quick and energetic movement. Aimed at advanced students, this is a fantastic piece for concerts, auditions and competitions. Faure Fantasie has long been a requirement for many entrance auditions to renowned music conservatoires and is a staple part of the flute repertoire.
