These works are technically demanding and explore the flute’s possibilities far beyond the standard playing techniques of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough only nine of the pieces survive, they show a wide stylistic range, moving from romanticism through impressionism to modern disintegration of tonality. The pieces are shaped by occasional ostinato figures and exotic scales, giving them a distinctly impressionistic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis revised edition is based on the 1920 publication and corrects obvious rhythmic and notation inconsistencies, as well as discrepancies between the flute part and score.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdylle champetre\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDanse pittoresque\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColibri\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLotus\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvocation a Brahma\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout Sigfrid Karg-Elert\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLate romantic\/impressionistic German composer, Sigfrid Karg-Elert (1877-1933) was best known for his works for organ and harmonium.
