    This captivating collection of American masterpieces for flute and piano includes an arrangement by Samuel Barber of the second movement of his Piano Concerto entitled "Canzone", Aaron Copland's "Duo", Eldin Burton's "Sonatina", sonatas by Lowell Liebermann and Robert Muczynski, and a short piece called "Voyage" by John Corigliano. The performers are the award-winning Canadian flautist Susan Hoeppner and the pianist Lydia Wong.
