Petite Suite for Flute and Piano is a piece written for the Paris Conservatoire contest by Pierre Petit . Really melodious, it lasts eight minutes and is divided into three distinct movements. The first part, “Gai et allant” is quite fast and has to be played joyfully. It uses the whole range of the instrument with some really high notes and includes a Cadenza. The second part, “Lent et très chanté”, is slower, slightly lower in range and really melodious. It is quite short compared to the other parts. The third and final movement has the same kind of range as the first one. Fast, it features a part to be played at Marzuka tempo and one to be played at the same tempo than the beginning. The piece ends on a really high trill. Petite Suite is really enjoyable to play and to listen to. It however requires some strong skills in terms of technique and sonority that would be acquired by advanced players: the difficulty is therefore rated at 7°.
