Hope : Flute and Piano Duet

Hope was composed in 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a simple, yet beautiful duet for flute and piano. The evolving melody passing between the instruments represents life's changing tides. There are periods that are graceful and pensive and others that are fleeting and exciting. The end of the piece is grave like looming depression, but it finally resolves in a bright cord-this symbolizes how even as we face difficult situations in life, there is always hope. This piece is an international-award-winning composition. "Hope" is idiomatic and can be enjoyed by many performers. The performance level is grade 3 and the duration is ca. 2' 10."
