Three Canzonas – Duet
by David Uber
In this suite, for flute and horn, Dr. Uber takes what may be considered a neo-Baroque look at composition. Set in three movements [fast, slow, fast] the music brings back the zest and joie de vivre of those newly composed instrumental canzonas so many years ago in the Baroque era.
