In this composition the flugelhorn is to the fore! In the introductory allegretto the soloist introduces us to the warm sound of the solo instrument before transitioning to an allegro in 5/4. The accompaniment is not difficult and uses a limited instrumentation: two trumpets, two horns and two trombones; bassoon and bass clarinet are optional. The solo can also be played on trumpet or alto saxophone; these parts are also included.
