This collection brings together four intimate pieces for flute and piano, each exploring a different musical and flute-specific focus — a distinct exploration of colour, articulation, phrasing or technical clarity. 

Sheet music and high-quality playback versions will be available soon for anyone who wants to explore, study, or perform the pieces.

ShortCuts Movement II – Melancholie
A lyrical piece in 3/4 time, shaped by a gentle, flowing pulse.
The piano weaves a soft, duolic motion beneath the flute’s broad melodic phrases, carrying its own delicate, charming line while supporting the emotional contour of the music.
The atmosphere is introspective yet warm – a quiet unfolding of tone and resonance.

Melancholie is well suited for self-study and teaching, offering a chance to refine phrasing, breath control, and musical sensitivity.
Sheet music and play-alongs will be available soon.
