UnlimitedFlutes is an original project based around the recording of new pieces composed for low flutes (Alto Flute, Bass Flute and Contra Bass Flute). Although the main aim is to give these lesser know flutes the opportunity to be composed for and heard, it does not exclude pieces for C-Flute and Piccolo; there are simply too many interesting, innovative pieces also being written for these instruments!
UnlimitedFlutes also searches to be a meeting place for Flutists and Composers offering the following:
To flutists:
- a growing selection of new pieces written for 5 different types of flutes
- samples of the score and information about the composer
- demonstration of contemporary techniques on the 5 flutes
To composers:
- high quality recording and video of pieces written for the 5 flutes, which demonstrate contemporary effects on the different instruments
- information about the composers (CV, photo, list of works)
- oportunity to hear lesser known instruments such as the Bass Flute and the Contra Bass Flute
This project was created to demonstrate the potential of the low flutes, but it also seeks to inspire composers to write innovative pieces (solo or chamber music) which can be submitted at any time.
For further information about supporting this project, submission of scores and general information please send an email or go to contact. We are happy to receive scores for possible recording and publication.
Thank you for your interest!
