The Use of Transcriptions to Expand the Flute Repertoire: A Technical Analysis of Rodrigo’s Fantasía para un Gentilhombre and Concierto Pastoral

This thesis explores the use of transcriptions to expand the flute repertoire, as well as the challenges transcriptions pose to both the performer and the arranger. It specifically examines Joaquin Rodrigo's Concierto Pastoral and Fantasía para un Gentilhombre, a piece originally written for guitar and later transcribed for flute by Sir James Galway. This paper will determine what is required to write a successful transcription.
