McKimm Barry - Piccolo Concerto No. 1 : piano reduction

Barry McKimm presents the Piccolo Concerto, here in a reduction by the composer for piccolo and piano. In three movements: I. Andante arioso - Allegro vivace; II. Air; and III. Allegro giusto. In McKimm's particular neo-tonal contemporary Australian language, melding a variety of traditional folk ideas with art music.

'Australian composer Barry McKimm s Concerto for Piccolo and Orchestra provides attractive melodies and athletic passages for the soloist. Though the work sometimes seems like a caricature of Irish music, the listener is quickly drawn into the piece.'
