Compiled and edited by Amy Porter, Treasures for Flute and Piano is a
collection of Philippe Gaubert’s shorter works for flute and piano. Gaubert
was a multi-talented musician, a marvelous flutist as well as a composer,
teacher, and master conductor. Over his lifetime, he became one of the most
important musical figures in France between the World Wars in the first half
of the 20th century. Trained in theory and harmony at the Paris Conservatory,
Gaubert was also deeply influenced by other composers at the time, including
Debussy, Fauré, and Dukas. Editor Amy Porter is a distinguished Professor
at The University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance, and has
been praised by critics for her exceptional musical talent and her passion for
scholarship. This edition represents eleven of the sixteen works from Amy
Porter and Dr. Penelope Fischer’s video study guide, “The Gaubert Cycle: The
Complete Works for Flute and Piano by Philippe Gaubert”.
