A Night In New Orleans (Flute Alone)

A Night In New Orleans (Flute Alone) (2015) By Eric Ewazen, Published by Theodore Presser Company.

Duration: 17 minutes.

Ewazen's A Night in New Orleans is a tour-de-force: a 12-minute work for solo flute which is at once a three-movement sonatine, a colorful travelogue, a venture into New Orleans jazz and zydeco styles, and a showcase for the flutist's versatility and endurance.

The three movements (which may also be performed individually) are titled:

I. 10:00pm, Bourbon Street;

II. 12:00am, Jackson Square;

III. 2:00am, Cafe du Monde.
