Chausson's lovely Poeme, a lush late-nineteenth-century symphonic poem for violin and orchestra, and Schubert's Rondo, another single concerted movement but from the first part of that century, make perfect companion pieces. Filled with luscious 19th-century themes but given the very different treatments typical of each composer and also of their very different musical eras. Both are marvelous concert-pieces.

Two quartets from two masters of the form, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Karl Stamitz. The Mozart KV370 quartet is often considered one of Mozarts greatest compositions. These two quartets were originally written for oboe and strings, but are often playedas hereby flute because of their fine effect on that instrument. Both demonstrate a thorough command of the wind and string sonorities, and they form perfect projects for the chamber-minded flutist.

This luscious quintet is scored for piano, oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon. Mozart's magnificent orchestration of the winds with piano creates a warm and glowing texture of sound, and each instrument emerges at times for a prominent position. Cast in three movements: Largo/Allegro moderato; Larghetto; and Rondo/Allegretto. Truly one of the great works in this format and wonderful fun to practice and perform.
