It was the final piece in a special flute faculty recital shared between these three flautists and Jan Willem. Many thanks are due to both Sarah and Philippa for their support and warmth in encouraging Ian to bring this piece to life. It was written with this concert as its first performance in mind. The second performance was given by the same team at Cardiff’s Millennium centre at the Arcomis International Flute Festival in 2012. As well as a vehicle for making music with others, it was written as a piece to explore the expressive sound-world of three flutes with piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003eMagical \u0026amp; Woven\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003ePlaintive\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003ePresto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Ian Clarke\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIan Clarke (born 1964) is an esteemed flautist and composer, regularly invited as a guest soloist and instructor at major conventions worldwide.
