Sheet music for flute:

(2 flutes)

Zimmermann, 34720

Rating: easy

1. Duo I (Allegro - Romance Andante - Rondo Allegretto)
2. Duo II (Allegro con brio - Andante - Rondo Allegretto-Scherzando)
3. Duo III (Allegro - Adagio - Polonaise)

Luxurious score with extra pages to swing out for easier page turning.

Late classic or early romantic music. Very beautiful music, the movements quite long. Both parts are equally demanding. It is really fun to play this.
