F.Kuhlau: "Grand solo" for flute No 1 in F Major (Op 57) was published in 1824. As alternative title suggests (Trois grands Solos pour la Flûte avec accompagnement de Piano-Forte ad libitum) the piece can be played solo or with piano accompaniment.
Kuhlau Friedrich
Friedrich Kuhlau (1786-1832) was born in Germany in military oboist family. Even though he lost his right eye due to accident on ice at the age of eight, he had to flee Germany not to be conscripted in Napoleonic Army in 1810. He settled down in Denmark, became Danish citizen and wrote most of his works there, thus becoming one of the most prominent Danish composers, known also as Frederick Kulav.
Although he was a concert pianist he wrote many pieces for flute, making to believe that he played flute as well (he didn't). Even though he lost most of his works during his housefire in 1831, there are rather many compositions for flute that have survived over the years to be played and enjoyed.
