A set of five sketches for treble recorder and piano Irish Mist A folk-like piece loosely based on a Sicilienne rhythm. The tonality of this sketch is centred on e minor. Resolute A persistent rhythmic motif and chromaticism gives the sketch momentum and colour. Elegant Based on the traditional waltz structure, the arpeggiated main theme is balanced with a step by step middle section. Vocalise Inspired by the great Vocalises of the past, the piano takes a more subservient role to the recorder. Jovial This is the final sketch in the collection; it is light-hearted and explores contrasts between staccato and legato.
