Variations on Nel cor più non mi sento (Flute and Piano)

Silcher Variations on Nel cor più non mi sento (Flute and Piano)

In his variations on “Nel cor più non mi sento” Friedrich Silcher (1789 – 1860) imparts an ever-changing musical character to the graceful, folk-like theme from Giovanni Paisiello’s opera “La Molinara”: quiet and placid in the “Cantabile”, wild and unfettered in the “Alla Pollaca” and virtuoso in the piano variation.

This is a work that brings forth fascinating combinations of timbres from the two instruments and will delight all performers.
