Three Elegies for flute, clarinet and piano, includes score and parts. This is a revised edition of the Images Cinematique suite for flute and clarinet, now freshly enhanced with a strong, lyric piano accompaniment. The three movement suite consists of gentle nostalgic tributes to classic movie stars: Tombeau de Carole Lombard, Memorie de M. Monroe and a colorful Carillion Fantastique de Lon Chaney. Originally composed in the 1980s with a computer generated tape accompaniment, the new edition with piano has a new sweep and continuity. Based on pentatonic scales, the movements are tonal but with a different twist that creates a wistful, somber lyricism. Two of the movements, the Tombeau and Memorie are still available in their original form with a CD recording. The duration of the movements are 5'18", 9'04" and 8'09". Of medium difficulty and recital length (22'27").
