{"product_id":"le-merle-noir-olivier-messiaen","title":"Alphonse Leduc — Le Merle Noir","description":"\u003ci\u003eThe Blackbird\u003c\/i\u003e, written in 1952 by Olivier Messiaen is a chamber work for flute and piano that lasts 5 minutes and is one of the most remarkable pieces of the flute repertoire. Based on the study of bird songs, this piece is very technical and challenging, with many details to focus on and would therefore be a fit for advanced students.  \u003ci\u003eThe Blackbird\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into five sections, not officially written, and mixed tonal and atonal parts. Each of the section is different to the ones surrounding them, and the piece also contains a few flute solos. Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was a French organist and composer passionate about Ornithology and one of the most important composer of his century. Inspired by Japanese music, he had a very special way of composing and his work can be identified by its complexity, its diatonic aspect, its harmony with limited transposition, its color and its additive rhythms. He composed many works related to ornithology and birdsong, including the 'Bird Catalogue' in 7 volumes and the 'Treatise on rhythm, color and ornithology' in 7 volumes.\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat \/ Medium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Softcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoicing:\u003c\/strong\u003e FLUTE\/PIANO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leduc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.2 × 9.2 × 0.1 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlphonse Leduc — French publisher since 1841, home of the Paris Conservatoire repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAuthorized dealer.
