There are two pieces in this little collection beginning with a Mélodie nocturne, a 3/4 Andante in A minor. There is plenty of friendly harmonic work, with the flute blending nicely over the top of the guitar's accompaniment in what is an appealing melody. Then shortly the music modulates to the minor key a third up in a development of the main idea before returning for a recapitulation and a close on A minor. The second piece is an Intermezzo with more than a hint of a dance-like jig in its rhythms. 6/8 dotted motives abound together with a certain chromaticism in the surrounding harmonies together with an almost English feel to the music. It proves a nice contrast to the opening slower work. This is a pleasant pair of nicely written pieces that doesn't extend the repertoire into any new areas but is melodic and engaging and passes a friendly few minutes. It is not too difficult and a duo of moderate abilities would perhaps enjoy this modest set.
