Rondo capriccioso.jpg

Rondo Capriccioso

Instrumentation: Two flutes and piano

​

Level: Advanced

​

Description: Originally a solo piano piece, I reimagined it as a trio. The flutes have a great dialogue with the opening melodies in the Andante section and then combine forces in the Rondo. The piano part still has some moments alone where it gets to shine too.
