Carl Nielsen has written very little for the flute beside his Flute Concerto. This Duet for flute and violin in A-major, CNW 48, FS 3e was initially written for two violins and originates from 1880-83, when in his youth Nielsen had played in a military band. As the manuscript of the composer has been the lost, this edition is based on the hand written parts by an unknown copyist.
