Flutists are sometimes singer-wannabes! No piece in the repertoire feeds that need, that desire more fully than Francois Borne’s Fantaisie brilliant sur Carmen. Full to over-flowing with the most joyous, proud, and taunting themes from Georges Bizet’s opera, the flutist is free to release her inner diva in this whirlwind display of unfettered virtuosity.
