This book by Sergio Arriagada offers ten brief and expressive pieces for flute and piano, continuing his pedagogical collections dedicated to South American music. Each piece is based on a distinctive rhythmic color and an immediately evocative character: Huaÿno (a pre-Columbian dance, notably from Peru and Bolivia), Chamarrita (Uruguay and neighboring regions), Cancion de Cuna (lullaby), Albazo (lively music from the Ecuadorian mountains), Milonga campera (country milonga, more narrative than dance-oriented), Sanjuanito alegre (Ecuador), Lonkomeo (Argentine Patagonia), Cachimbo Nortino (Northern Chile), and Viejo Vals (Argentine waltz infused with local influences). The pieces can be performed with or without repeats, and performers are encouraged to embellish the melodic line with ornaments of their choice, making this an excellent resource to approach style, articulation, and breathing, while developing listening skills and phrasing sense. The piano part remains accessible to an intermediate-level accompanist, and chord symbols allow for accompaniment by instruments other than piano. The included CD supports independent practice: it offers the full version of each piece, as well as accompaniment-only tracks, ideal for home practice, audition preparation, or ensemble playing.
