Beach Party is all about fun and enjoyment on holiday. Calypso Capers has a rhythmic lilt and is full of great energy and momentum; A Holiday Romance has a tender and lyrical melody above a repetitive and gentle accompaniment ending with a lively and syncopated Beach Bossa.

The melodic interest is shared between all three flutes and there is much to enjoy for players and audiences alike. Slap on that sunblock, put on your shades and boogie-on down to the beach!

Beach Party was premiered at Wells Cathedral School (Somerset, UK) on 28 April 2013 by Nic Lum, Joe Prindl and Josie Jobbins.
