Instruments

Dóra Seres performs on an eighteen-carat gold Muramatsu flute for this recording.

Performer Biography

Dóra Seres is the principal flute player of the Danish National Chamber Orchestra in Copenhagen.

Interpretation

Dóra Seres prioritized preserving the character of each Caprice and avoided substituting flute alternatives for violin octaves and double stops, as it would have affected the tempi and nature of the flute.

Performer Biography

Dóra Seres has won numerous international flute competitions, including 1st prize at the 'Prague Spring' International Flute Competition in 2001.

Interpretation

Dóra Seres, the flutist on this album, aimed to reflect the musical essence of Michael Rabin's violin interpretation of the Caprices in her flute version.
