Songs of the Open Road

Five Inspirations from Walt Whitman

for Solo Flute

Daniel Dorff (composer), Walt Whitman (author)

Instrumentation

  • Flute

Whitman’s epic “Song of the Open Road” is an inspiring metaphor encouraging us to find and explore our own paths, free of anchors or artificial boundaries. Dorff uses 5 brief passages from the poem as movement titles, setting the stage for a suite of sometimes-edgy soliloquies in which the music (and the flutist) explores these open roads. A live performance by Amy Porter is available at https://youtu.be/n0jIcZOhBe4
