Bonis, Mel - Pièce pour flûte et piano

This piece, written around 1900, emphasizes the purity and great sensitivity of Bonis’ work. It can be interpreted as a reflection of a difficult life spent trying to establish herself first as a student at the Paris Conservatoire, then as a housewife – through an arranged marriage – and finally as a composer.
