Instrumentation: Flute Quartet

Duration: 5’

Program Notes: Flutter is a piece for flute quartet that is inspired by monarch butterfly migration across North America. Every year, monarch butterflies make the 3,000 mile journey between Canada/Northern U.S in the summer to the forests of Sothern Mexico in the winter. The Monarch butterfly's ability to make this journey every year is astonishing because it takes 5 generations of butterflies to complete the flight. The butterflies know precisely where to go due to highly developed internal clocks and information passed through the generations in their genes. This piece depicts the incredible resilience of the monarch butterfly and their ability to always find their way home no matter where they go.
