Portafoglio per I Dilettanti, Op. 67, No. 2 - Flute Duet and Piano

Giulio Briccialdi was one of the greatest flautists of the 19th century, famed across Europe as the "Paganini of the Flute". He composed over 200 works, mostlyl salon pieces and variations on opera themes for flute and piano.

His music is imbued with all the melodic charm of the bel canto style, and although the Portafoglio per i dilettanti for two flutes and piano does not directly take its thematic inspiration from the opera house, its musical style certainly does.

With its delightfully romantic melodies and sparkling virtuoso fireworks, this fully revised edition of Duo No. 2, Op. 67 is a significant new addition to the standard repertoire for two flutes and piano.
