FLUTE AND HARP REPERTOIRE
Program Notes:
Seven Haiku is a set of seven poetic miniatures for flute (or alto flute) and harp. All miniatures are short and slow, almost still tempo, thus creating a rather static, meditative feeling. They should be played without any pause in-between, as long as the harp’s pedal setting allows. The listener shall perceive the music as one, whole and uninterrupted meditative event.
This work was written during a continued turmoil period in Israel, while searching for some quietude, stillness and positive outlook about life. The piece is rather an experience, or meditative event, trying to slow down the pace, minimize events, create no dramas.
In the realm of classical music, the fusion of flute and harp creates a captivating synergy. Contemporary composers have embraced this unique pairing, crafting compositions that bridge tradition and innovation. These works explore uncharted tonal landscapes, blending melodic intricacy with the ethereal resonance of the harp.
From minimalist vignettes to bold experimental pieces, the contemporary flute and harp repertoire invites listeners on a journey through soundscapes that resonate with both nostalgia and modernity.
