FLUTE STORIES - Louis Moyse's PASTORALE
Manage episode 324815915 series 2798582
Composer/flutist/pianist Louis Moyse's Pastorale was written in 1925 when he was just 14 years old. Louis was the son of the great French flutist Marcel Moyse, and he grew up steeped in Parisian culture and with the sound of the flute in his ears and his heart. That influence shows in this evocative, oh-so-French piece that sounds like a marriage between Impressionism and springtime in the French countryside.
