1901: Un Oiseau (2018) is in two movements and revolves around ideas of threshold, similitude and distortion. At the onset, both flutes display almost identical pitch material set to slightly different rhythms. This resulting heterophony is colored employing a kaleidoscopic array of sounds that include the usual repertory of flute effects but also sighing, whistling and singing. The two initially very similar streams progressively diverge, carving more individual paths towards a brief contemplative drone that ushers a closing coda. The piece was written for and is dedicated to Argentine duo MEI Música para flautas
