She's Like the Swallow - piano/flute/oboe (early advanced)

A haunting and beautifully crafted chamber piece for piano, flute, and oboe based on the well-known Newfoundland folksong, "She's Like the Swallow". Features melody crossings, legato phrasing, articulated passages and extensive use of word-painting in the piano. Underscoring the music is the original, rarely presented text of love, betrayal, and defeat.
