Piano accompaniment backing tracks
Saverio Mercadante was primarily an opera composer, but among flautists his fame rests on this E minor Flute Concerto. It was written in 1814, and its melodies are often operatic in style, while the popular Rondo Russe finale is in the style of a Russian dance.
These piano accompaniment tracks help make practising more effective and enjoyable! They are recorded by a professional accompanist and can help you keep in tune and in time, as you listen to the piano part for this work. Please scroll down for samples and details of each movement.
