Flute Quartet

Flute Quartet is based on a 1991 work of the composer entitled To the Three Graces, which is inspired by Botticelli’s painting “La Primavera.” The work begins with a slow lyrical introduction followed by a fast movement. The outer sections of the latter are based on canonic imitation with a middle folk-like tune. The entire composition is based on figures made of consecutive intervals of thirds. The lyrical sections manifest the Greek heritage of the composer.
