About the event
French Music for Flute and Piano
Emma Halnan, flute & Antonio Oyarzabal, piano
This recital explores the rich colours, elegance and imagination of the French flute tradition, bringing together beloved masterpieces with remarkable rediscoveries by women composers. Featuring music by Francis Poulenc, Henri Dutilleux, Mel Bonis, Germaine Tailleferre, Elsa Barreine and others, the programme traces a fascinating journey through French musical life in the twentieth century.
Combining lyrical beauty, virtuosic brilliance and a spirit of discovery, the recital highlights both the celebrated voices that shaped the repertoire and the composers whose contributions are only now beginning to receive the recognition they deserve. Through this carefully curated programme, flautist Emma Halnan and pianist Antonio Oyarzabal invite audiences into a vibrant and colourful sound world where familiar masterpieces and hidden gems stand side by side.
