Nikol'sky, Aleksandr Vasil'evich, Foreword by Louis W. Lewis
Concerto for Flute & Piano
The Nikol'sky Concerto for Flute & Piano is a major work published in Russia in 1926. Now it is made available in a new edition. It goes from simple but beautiful folk-tune-like melodies to interesting technical challenges. The range is from low B to E above high C. A flute with a low B, a C# trill key, a fine pianist and serious study are all that are needed to reveal the beauty and brilliance of this concerto.
