Selected Duets For Flute Podcast

Selected Duets for Flute, Page 32 Number 2, performed by David Summer. The title of this duet, "Le Chasseur" translates into English as "the hunter". There is a famous cookware company named "Le Chasseur" as well as a movie with Steve McQueen called "Le Mans Le Chasseur", that features an interesting score by composer Michel Legrand. Like earlier duets in this book, this duet is in 6/8 time at a fast tempo, played "in 2". It seems, from the title, that the duet is meant to invoke images of a hunt. The metronome setting for this performance is dotted quarter note = 66.
