Divided into three movements, it begins with the lively Allegro con brio, followed by the expressive Molto cantabile ed espressivo, and concludes with the playful Allegretto scherzando, non troppo vivo. Flutist Sharon Bezaly delivers a virtuoso performance, showcasing her technical brilliance and musical sensitivity.
