Wushu Duel for Flute and Cello Duration: 6:00

Program Note Scored for flute and cello the work is a duel/duo inspired by the composer’s love of martial arts cinema and the Kung-fu themed films of Bruce Lee. In some ways, the martial arts tradition is not unlike the practice of music making. It is from these common links, practice, harmony and control towards perfection and peace that the work combines these two instruments in the fashion of a tournament between masters of wind and string.
