About the Program:
The flute repertoire is curiously deprived of Romantic flute music. Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Berlioz, Wagner, Verdi, Dvorak – not one of these composers wrote works for the flute.
Elaine’s recital focuses on works from and written in the style of the Romantic period. 3 Sätzen, an out-of-print work for flute and piano by Carl Krüger, a gifted composer from a north German family of professional musicians, has been reprinted by the publisher for this performance, said a release.
Donna Elaine is principal flute in the New Choral Society Orchestra and teaches throughout the New York area.
Admission to the recital is $18, $15 for seniors (65-plus) and free to HBMS students and students 18 years of age and younger.
