Joachim Andersen: Tarantella for flute and piano, Op. 10 was published in 1884 by Max Leichssenring in Hamburg.
Tarantella is a single-movement work in 6/8 time, typical of the tarantella form, requiring rapid-fire articulation and technical precision. The tarantella was a popular "virtuoso genre" in the 19th century. Andersen's contribution follows in the footsteps of composers like Chopin and Liszt, using the dance's relentless triple-meter rhythm as a vehicle for technical display.
Composed during Andersen's "golden years" in Berlin, shortly after he co-founded the Berlin Philharmonic in 1882. This was a time of immense creative output where he sought to expand the solo flute repertoire with technically challenging yet musically engaging pieces.
Joachim Andersen (1847 – 1909) was a Danish flutist, conductor and composer. Born in Copenhagen, in a family of flutist, he received his musical training from his father, Christian Joachim Andersen and soon was acknowledged as flute virtuoso. In 1869 he joined the Royal Danish Orchestra but left after a year to seek more challenging work. For couple years he played in the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra in Russia but then moved to Berlin. There he appeared as a soloist as well as performed with Bilse Band and the Royal German Opera.
In 1882 he was one of the co-founders of the Berlin Philharmonic along with 53 other musicians of Bilse Band. Over period of 8 summers he conducted two daily concerts of the Scheveningen summer festival in Hague.
Due to his health problems he had to leave his position with Berlin Philharmonic in 1893 and moved to Copenhagen. There he founded and orchestra school as well as dedicated his time to composing.
