Additional Information
These two pieces are to be performed as a pair. They are written in jazz styles and were originally for violin and piano. I wrote them as a gift for my colleague and friend Claire Hall. When we are able to record them I will publish the recording. Until then, this is a Sibelius 7.5.1 realization of an adaptation for flute and piano that I made for my daughter Cat Cutler.
The first piece is entitled Towards the Rainbow and the material is derived from the popular song "Somewhere over the Rainbow". It was written during the first Covid 19 pandemic lockdown in the spring of 2020 when the rainbow had been adopted nationally as a sign of hope.
The second piece is a Joyful Song and looks optimistically towards a positive future when the virus has been well and truly beaten.
