Description

This inspiring 4½-minute solo has drama, beauty, idiomatic flashiness, and an opening theme in Minor that comes back in a triumphant Major key. The composer has written, “Flight begins slowly, then suddenly takes off like a bird on its maiden voyage leaping from a cliff. After a torrid swing through the sky, the young bird lands gently.” Flight is within reach of dedicated students, and very effective for professional recitals.”
