Need flute solo?

Post by lyndsey791 »

Hello, I'm auditioning for something and am in need of a flute solo to play. There's a time limit so I can't play anything more than around 5 minutes. I know it's extremely hard to describe skill level online, but I think the following pieces would be too easy.
-Concerto in G Major by Quantz
-Sonata in A Minor by Bach


I don't really like 20th century pieces like Icicle by Aitken or Density 21.5, or Baroque music.

I like things that are up-tempo, with pretty runs. Thanks so much!

Does there have to be a piano part too? I've been listening to this one this morning.

I was looking for something along the lines of this, perhaps with more minor parts. I like prokofiev and vivaldi and composers of the sort. Thanks for the link, I was listen to it! But I think a piece with a piano accompaniment would be ideal. Thanks!

I also like the 4th movement of Prokofiev's Sonata in A Major!

Sorry for the numerous replies- I'm new to this site! I just wanted to state that the fourth movement (prokofiev sonata) may be a bit tricky for me.
