“Layback Waltz” Audio Sample
Layback Waltz for Flute and Guitar” is a lyrical piece; and is from a collection of five works for flute and guitar titled “Happenstance”. There is also an arrangement for Flute and Piano; and as well as the flute part, versions have been written for: Bb Clarinet, Oboe, and Soprano Saxophone. This work is suitable for players of intermediate and above level.
The parts include ‘count-in notes’, which aid the performer to keep the tempo when playing against a prerecorded piano accompaniment MP3 file. These added notes would never be included when performing with a live pianist.
Although in a 6/8 waltz time, the piece wanders about a number of themes; and is a bit like a pleasant journey down a path to who knows where. The Piece has an impressionistic feel with the guitar/piano mainly featuring as an harmonic accompaniment. Layback Waltz is suitable for advanced players.
