Description
Louis Drouet (1792-1873) was a significant European flautist of his time. Born in Amsterdam, Drouet was a performer, composer, and conductor. These Three Little Sonatas are drawn from the end of the third section of Drouet’s Method. With notes on the sources.
“A pianist would not need to be terribly advanced to perform these parts, making these pieces practical choices for studio recitals and solo competitions…Schott’s edition comes with a well-written preface that helpfully places the pieces in history and explains corrections made to the urtext. It also includes a brief biography of Drouet and quotations from his other writings instructing students on the proper approach to tonguing, which comes in very handy in these sonatas and helps encourage a general intellectual curiosity about a historical performance practice…It is a fine set of sonatas for teachers and young players alike to own and enjoy.”–The Flutist Quarterly
