Michael, I had listened to the playback of your piece and at first puzzled how it could be so technically perfect while being totally uninflected in terms of rhythm & dynamics, but then realized that

It’s been a long while since I wrote it, but IIRC there was enough of a match between the HB & FE themes that they lent themselves to this merger. I must know: What Mozart & Bach pieces work

Michael, I have a couple of questions regarding he piece: 1. The sections are labeled "Variation 4...Variation 1...Theme" can you explain the ordering? Are you applying the method used by Mozart &

OK, I’ve had reports of the IMSLP link not working, so I investigated: Safari & Firefox work fine. Chrome does not. Crazy. Anyway, here’s the link:

Thanks! There’s an IMSLP link in the description. One person mentioned a problem, but I haven’t heard back from them, so perhaps it was temporary.

Michael, I love it. The opening reminds me so much of a Telemann Fantasie, but then it evolves from there. Could you post a .pdf so I can download & print? Fletcher James

Hi—I just posted an odd little piece I wrote almost 40y ago. If nothing else, it might make a good "leap" etude ;-) Für Elise's Birthday for solo flute or violin (

Thank you Jen. That sounds a great idea. Cork supplements will be easy to test taken from a wine bottle. I will be able to make different tests with different thickness. David's solution seems a more

Thank you. I had not heard about gloves for playing flute. I think my problems are not so bad to require that. I have seen in internet luthiers that make some adaptations suplementing some keys for

Absolutely. The flute and the recorder are cousins, but they have differences. The recorder is known as the FIPPLE flute, well. The concert flute is a little bit different. I play both, and it's

Oh Alice you are so correct. I hadn't even read that far down. Good grief the internet is STILL full of misinformation just as it was back in 1999 (!) when I joined, and that was the reason I wrote so
