Philippe Gaubert (1879-1941) was a distinguished performer on the flute. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that his compositions for the instrument are at the forefront of the flute's repertoire, Romance being no exception. After a prominent career as a flautist with the Paris Opera, he was appointed as professor of flute at the Paris Conservatoire, as well as principal conductor of leading orchestras. It was during this time that Gaubert composed, including his Romance which premiered in 1905. Addressing many technical features, including flourishing semiquaver passages, a wide range, emotion, intervals, chromaticism and complex rhythms, Romance for Flute and Piano is a challenging yet riveting and stirring piece for aspiring flautists.

From orchestra pieces to chamber music, he wrote various different compositions, including Suite for Flute and Piano, Op. 34 which was composed for Paul Taffanel. This suite, a subtle mix of Romanticism and Classicism, particularly stands out for its nuances and is composed of four movements: - Moderato - Scherzo - Romance - Final Charles-Marie Widor also composed 10 symphonies for Organ, some Operas, and some Piano Concerti.â€.
