Parisian Impressions
Leonard Garrison (flute), Roger McVey (piano)
All of the music presented here, beautiful in its own right, is suitable for intermediate-level flutists to play. None have been widely recorded, so this recording offers performance models for younger students. These are lovely concert pieces by French composers written in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Flutist Leonard Garrison teaches at the Lionel Hampton School of Music at the University of Idaho and is principal flute of the Walla Walla Symphony. He has been flutist in the Chicago Symphony and Tulsa Philharmonic as well as president of the National Flute Association. His other recordings on Albany Records include works for flute and piano by American composers and two recordings of the Scott/Garrison Duo performing American works for clarinet and flute. His colleague at the University of Idaho, Roger McVey is the pianist on this recording.

"Since all the playing is on a high level, flute fanciers will certainly enjoy themselves while hearing pieces from outside the usual routine."

Leonard Garrison plays all of this music with consummate skill and artistry. He is admirably supportedby Roger McVey at the keyboard. If you are drawn to light music for flute and piano, this can be heartily recommended.
