Abstract

Tara Lynn Meade performed a graduate flute recital at eight o’clock in the evening on Friday, March 7, 2014 in Davis Hall at the Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center. Collaborating with Ms. Meade on selected works were pianists Polina Khatsko and Brittany Lensing and flutists Mara Miller and Natalie Neshyba. The recital was presented in partial fulfillment of a Master of Music in flute performance. The program opened with a set of contrasting fantasies — Telemann’s Fantasia No. 3 in B Minor, a baroque work for solo flute, followed by François Borne’s virtuosic Fantasie brillante on themes from Bizet’s Carmen. The first portion of the program concluded with a trio of flutists who presented the ethereal sounds of the first movement of Ian Clarke’s Curves. Following intermission, the audience was treated to two twentiethcentury works, Robert Dick’s Fish are Jumping and Jindřich Feld’s energetic Sonata for Flute and Piano. Ms. Meade’s graduate recital presented works spanning four centuries, from Telemann’s fantasia published in 1733 to Clarke’s composition released in 2012, illustrating the variety and virtuosity of the flute repertoire.
