Sakura 2007 (8’)
for flute, bassoon and piano
Furore Edition 10019
First performance: May 2007 (German National Museum) during the Nuremberg New Music Festival.
Sound Research of Women Composers: Contemporary Music (C 8)

The piece is based on the Japanese folksong “Sakura” (Cherry Blossom). Against a canvas of bell-like
sounds in the piano the two wind instruments engage in a complex, but also lyrical and passionate
dialogue. Very difficult.
