Flute Concerto
by Jacques Ibert
Flute 20th Century Concerto ~20 min professional
Composed in 1933 for Marcel Moyse, this concerto is one of the most brilliant and demanding works in the flute repertoire. The outer movements are virtuosic and witty, filled with rapid articulation, wide leaps, and sparkling passagework. The central Andante is a haunting, modal nocturne. A required piece for virtually every major orchestral flute audition.
