Left Behind for Solo Flute (left-hand only) by Sarah Bassingthwaighte. From the composer: "I was approached with the idea of composing a piece for solo flute using only the left hand. This could be played by someone with a right-hand or wrist injury, or for anyone interested in trying a new flute adventure. My first thought is that the options would be very limited, and then I thought of something Stravinsky said that has rolled around in my head for years: “The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees one’s self. And the arbitrariness of the constraint serves only to obtain precision of execution.” He spoke often about the necessity of imposing restrictions to creating great music."
