Here is a piece for piano and flute – again, played on the computer – so it won’t be as exciting as in the real!
It’s called “Magpies” because the middle section sort of sounds like magpies gabbling away in the trees. At least, it sounds a bit like the magpies we have here in New Zealand (which were introduced from Australia in the 1860s to combat pastoral insect pests).
Thanks

This was very whimsical and quirky. Right up my alley Bruce. You are very talented. Thanks for sharing it!

Glad you liked it thanks, Matthew. Of course, it was inspired by Australian magpies so I expect you to be biased!

I like all of your musical vignettes Bruce. You’re right however, the fact that Australian magpies have inspired this delightful piece makes it all the more to my liking. BTW I f&/king hate magpies.

I f&/king hate magpies too – and so does my dog – and they are all over the f&/king place! However, they make a nice sound in a chorus,

I’m afraid I didn’t notice the chorus, that could be because my Mum developed her on chorus yelling at us kids. Also my rival Australian team are called the Collingwood magpies. Come to think of it your piece is about the only good thing I’ve come to know about them and of course taking down your insects.

I do like this but I’m a fan…your music moves well. It doesn’t get bogged down. That may not make sense but it does to me.
I do like the f&/king magpie part.

Thanks Max- that is much appreciated. You might not like this particular species of f&/king magpie in the real.
