Sunset Over a Distant Horizon
Watch on YouTube:
The title of this evocative piece for flute really describes how it should be played - soft, gentle, evolving - with a clear, rounded tone and effective use of vibrato.

The difficulty level makes it suitable for lower intermediate players upwards.

Alternatively it works fine as a flute solo (with no accompaniment).

The download gives you the flute and piano score, plus the flute part. The piece can be played with piano accompaniment, or along to one of the backing tracks.

Beauty beyond words.....

Whether you're sitting on the beach, hiking in the mountains, or even relaxing in a rocking chair on your own front porch, watching a breathtaking sunset never ceases to amaze and delight.

Each day ends with a unique sunset that is unlike any that has come before or will come after.

While there are no words or even pictures that can capture the true beauty of watching a sunset, this piece aims to paint a musical picture of just how beautiful and inspiring they can be.

A beautiful sunset - one of nature's treasures

Full of Eastern Promise ......

The haunting melody of this piece has a distinct character inspired by music from Eastern countries.

This is because it is based on a minor pentatonic scale - a five-note scale which forms the basis of many Eastern and oriental forms of music.
