Andersen Five Easy Pieces Op.56 for Flute and piano

안데르센 쉬운 소품 5곡 Op.56 플루트와 피아노

Flutists know Joachim Andersen (1847?1909) as the composer of 188 masterful etudes that have challenged

and inspired musicians for over a century. These etudes are his legacy, but they should not completely

overshadow his 54 works for flute and piano which include both brilliant showpieces and charming miniatures

for the salon. Born in Copenhagen, Andersen learned to play the flute under his father`s guidance. He became

one of the finest flutists of his day and, as a young man, enjoyed prestigious positions in Danish and Russian

orchestras. In 1881, he moved to Berlin, becoming a founding member of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra the

following year. Andersen wrote most of his flute compositions during this enormously productive and

successful period in Berlin. Though his career as a flutist ended in the early 1890s because of a debilitating

tongue disease, he continued to compose lovely pieces for his instrument. Because the location of Andersen`

s manuscript of Opus 56 is not known, the first edition of the pieces, published by Zimmermann in 1894, has

been used as the primary source for this publication. The pieces are not difficult as already indicated in the

name, but not too easy because a beautiful lyrical tone is needed, you could even call them lyrical pieces as

the titles (In Autumn The Flowers Under the Balcony Serenade From former Times) are not programmatic but

rather the expression of feelings.
