Debussy's Syrinx is perhaps the best-known classical woodwind solo of all time. It was written in 1913 - originally entitles "La Flûte de Pan" - as incidental music to a play that was never completed . It was renamed by Jean Jobert, publisher of the first edition in 1927. Debussy dedicated the piece to the flautist Louis Fleury (1878-1926), who played it by candlelight at its premiere. Debussy originally wrote the piece without barlines or breath marks. As well as being a key staple of the flute repertoire, it is often played as a saxophone solo. One argument for playing it on melodica is that this instrument has a separate reed for each note, and as such is vaguely akin to the 'panpipes' which have a separate instrument for each note. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear www.psear.co.uk
