Andante and Rondo, Op. 25
Composers:- Doppler, Franz
- Ephross, Arthur
Duration: 9
Description:
Albert Franz Doppler (1821 – 1883) was a flute virtuoso and a composer best known for his flute music. Taught by his composer and oboist father, Joseph, Franz made his Vienna debut as a flutist at the age of 13 and embarked on several concert tours, often accompanied by his younger brother Karl, also a highly accomplished flutist and composer. This playful ANDANTE ET RONDO, Op. 25, was composed to showcase the talents of the Doppler brothers during one of their many tours, and it remains a favorite duet for flutists today. A flashy showpiece, the long melody of the Andante sweeps and soars in a dramatic fashion with rich harmonies in the two flutes, while the Rondo features complex rhythmic layers, and has the cheek and drive of a Hungarian gypsy dance. This edition has been edited by Arthur Ephross.
