Small, Haskell % Short Story - FL/OB/CL/CEL/PN

Short Storyfor flute, oboe, clarinet, cello, and pianoby Haskell Small (b. 1948)- American composer   Although there is no intended program, Short Story has a strong narrative quality throughout its single movements. The thematic material is mostly of an airy, lyrical nature juxtaposed with a chase motif and several sections of a gently jazzy flavor. It is essentially in sonata-form, with an introductory recitative-like section that repeats in the middle and at the end of the work. A short fugue based on the main lyrical theme precedes this final ending.  Duration: 10:30
