Sicilian Air op. 56 長笛加鋼琴 齊默爾曼版

這部作品的初稿是作曲家在上世紀 80 年代末第一次前往西西里島時創作的。但這部作品直到 2003 年才成為現在的樣子。樂曲的主要部分滲透著西西里特有的點狀節奏。同樣，形式感和自發性之間的特殊混合似乎也是某些西西里巴羅克宮廷樂曲的典型特徵。這首曲子是一首迴旋曲，沿襲了十九世紀流行的 "音樂會舞曲"（Morceau de Concert）的傳統。由於難度適中，它既適合教學，也適合音樂會"

原文簡介:
First drafts for this work were made during the composer's first journey to Sicily in the late 80's. But it should last until as late as 2003 for the piece to become what it is now. For a major part, the piece is penetrated by the characteristic dotted Sicilian rhythm. The same may also apply to the special mixture between formality and spontaneity which seem to have been typical for certain Sicilian Baroque palazzi. This piece is a rondo and follows the tradition of the Morceau de Concert, a popular piece of the 19th century. Due to its intermediate difficulty, it is suited both for lessons and for concerts.
