Its rhythm uses alternating 6\/8 and 3\/4 time signatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGuajiras\u003c\/em\u003e de Casanovas consists of an introduction that begins with a brief piano introduction, whose motifs the soloist repeats and develops with a certain flamenco Spanish air. The piano then begins a \"Tiempo de Guajira\" which serves as the basis for the soloist to present the theme and different variations based on scales, arpeggios and double notes. Finally, the opening introduction is repeated and interrupted for the soloist to play a cadenza followed by a brief and conclusive two-bar coda.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition of \u003cem\u003eGuajiras\u003c\/em\u003e is based on the manuscript of the version for flute and piano made by the composer himself in 1981, which bears the following dedication: \"Recuerdo para Juan Francisco Cayuelas\" (Remembrance for Juan Francisco Cayuelas). in this version, the author proposes during the \"Tiempo de Guajira\" several alternative measures or \"ossia\" depending on the skill of the soloist who plays it, as well as a different and longer cadenza than the original one for saxophone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brotons \u0026 Mercadal Edicions Musicals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43670723919951,"sku":"101-007PA","price":30.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/f55996fda000d5c1c35a05abcf3eb02b.jpg?v=1760020702"},{"product_id":"casanovas-nymph-driope-appearance-of-pan-brotons","title":"Casanovas: Nymph Dríope \u0026 Appearance of Pan","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/ja\/collections\/francisco-casanovas\"\u003eFrancisco Casanovas (1899-1986)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eFlute\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790692452515\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e8.9\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNymph Dríope\u003c\/em\u003e is the first piece from \u003cem\u003eThree Pieces for Solo Flute\u003c\/em\u003e. Dríope is a character from Greek mythology. There are various versions of her story; the most widely known recounts that she was not actually a nymph, but the only daughter of King Driops. She tended his flocks near Mount Oeta and became friends with the Hamadryads—tree nymphs—from whom she learned hymns and dances pleasing to the gods. According to Ovid in his Metamorphoses, Dríope went to a mountain to offer a sacrifice in honour of the nymphs. Blinded by the dazzling flowers of a tree, she picked some, unaware that the tree was in fact the nymph Lotis. Lotis, angered, transformed her into a similar tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo compose \u003cem\u003eNymph Dríope\u003c\/em\u003e, Casanovas drew inspiration from the \u003cem\u003eCapriccio\u003c\/em\u003e for solo flute by his friend Robert Gerhard, who had dedicated the piece to him in 1949 during one of his returns to Barcelona from India. However, Casanovas gave it a less dodecaphonic and more neo-impressionist and oriental style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAppearance of Pan\u003c\/em\u003e is the second of his \u003cem\u003eThree Pieces for Solo Flute\u003c\/em\u003e. It displays a distinctly Oriental and Neo-Impressionist style. The title alludes to the moment in Greek mythology when the god Pan appears on a mountain in Arcadia and begins to amorously pursue a nymph named Syrinx. The theme recalls Debussy's \u003cem\u003ePan's Flute\u003c\/em\u003e, published as \u003cem\u003eSyrinx\u003c\/em\u003e by editor Jobert in the first edition of 1927.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorks:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNymph Driope from 3 Pieces for Solo Flute (Nymph Dríope, Appearance of Pan, and Repose) (1972)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppearance of Pan from 3 Pieces for Solo Flute (Nymph Dríope, Appearance of Pan, and Repose) (1972)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brotons \u0026 Mercadal Edicions Musicals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43670781952079,"sku":"101-006PA","price":24.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/6a8a13acb0f694e42db9d76d5b5b01e3.jpg?v=1760021482"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/ja\/collections\/francisco-casanovas.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
