Schubert: Introduction and variations (on Trockne Blumen from 'Die schöne Müllerin') for flute and piano D 802 op 160 Abstract: In general, they work in detail aspects such as phrasing, articulation and character of each variation. The phrasing is explained in relation to the harmony. Professor Bennett comments that sometimes it is necessary to adapt the lips to the embouchure to play some notes (e. g. D#).
