Hello all. I am in need of suggestions for a flute or oboe solo (and I do mean a piece which sounds fine with no accompaniment) for a Christmas concert in a few weeks. Help please! Thanks

you could go with flight of the bumble bee (if you can play it) or you could do some kind of study, i don;t know much about them but air on a g string is nice so is moonlight sonate, (u wen i have ried them i have had an accompliment. other then that i don't know. disney songs are always pretty.

Almost any flute duet piece will do. The oboe can play the lower part. There might be balance issues, though.

Good luck!

Oops! I misread your post! I thought you meant flute AND oboe. Sorry!

Okay, this is my fifth year playing on flute, and this is my second year on oboe, but I can play fourth year pieces on the oboe. I take lessons on the oboe, and I do get some help from my music teacher for the flute. Pieces I am working on/have played....

1. Prelude to Unaccompanied Cello Suite No.1 (oboe)
2. Polonaise (flute)
3. Sonata for Oboe and Piano op. 166 (oboe)
4. Badinerie (flute)
5. All-State stuff (flute & oboe)

I need some advice for something that is mildly difficult but not too flashy.
