Practically, the work comes out of the efforts of my friend and colleague Robert Ambrose, a champion of new music who encouraged me to write for chamber winds, and flute in particular, and who shepherded the project with infectious enthusiasm.
In writing the piece, I was particularly excited to explore these styles while juxtaposing the virtuosity of the soloist with the delicate intimacy of the chamber ensemble. In the later movements, the Franco-survey is expanded to other inspirations-to not only the techniques of other French nationals, but also of those I consider “French” in spirit, such as Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu. This Concertino takes the lively French chamber wind literature of the early 20th-century as its starting point, but this piece views the “French” style through an odd lens, twisting and bending the language of that neo-Classical genre in order to run the music through very different stylistic approaches.
