Amanda Harberg’s formidable 12-minute SONATA is a major addition to the piccolo repertoire. Commissioned by Regina Helcher Yost with a consortium of the world’s leading piccoloists, Harberg’s unique gift for expressive melody, driving and playful rhythms, and jazz-inspired harmony results in an explosive and thrilling new work that explores the full range of the piccolo’s lyrical and virtuosic powers. Premiered at the 2018 NFA Convention by Ms. Helcher Yost with the composer at the piano, this work is ideal for advanced and professional performers.

Piccolo and Piano Reduction. This work was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It was first performed on 23 April 1997, by Stewart McIlwham and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the composer. The three movements should be played without a break. The piccolo may have obvious limitations as a solo instrument, but Davies is not one to shirk a challenge. What he does is to play with the stereotypical modes of the instrument, so that the military pipe and drum effect is hinted at near the beginning of the third movement, while the jaunty manner is recalled at the close of the first, but as through a veil. A potentially comic partnership with the bass clarinet is also dignified when the two instruments engage in meditative dialogue in the second movement. Duration c. 15 minutes. Study Score on sale. Conductor's score and orchestral parts are available on hire.

Stephen Houghs Paradise, written as the test piece for the 2016 National Flute Association Piccolo Artist Competition does something a little bit different; as the composer himself says, I wanted to allow the piccolo to become the romantic lead to play the passionate hero. Written in three sections, Houghs piece is a typically thoughtful, stylish and welcome addition to the piccolo repertoire.
