Abstract
The topic of this dissertation is the concours pieces for flute at
the Paris Conservatory covering two decades. The works are used for exit
examination pieces for graduating students at the conservatory. The music
is chosen by the director, the professors in the performance area, and a
committee of other professors. These pieces still seem to be among the
more important pieces known by flutists in the twenty-first century, and they
are also frequently used as required audition pieces by conservatories,
orchestras, and competitions. I have performed the works used for
examination in two decades separated by almost half a century: The pieces
from 1900 to 1909 and from 1940-1949, This performance dissertation
contains three recital programs, and the recordings of the recitals are filed
electronicaIly. I have grouped them according to contrasting styles in three
recitals. Works performed are Agrestide (1942) by Eugene Bozza, Andante
et Scherzo (1945) by Francois J. Brun, Preude et Scherzo (1908) by Henri
Busser, Concertino (1902) by Cecile Chaminade, sixth Solo (1855) by Jules
Demersseman (it was on the concours of 1896, dates which are outside the

Presto (1904) by Georges Enesco, Andante et Scheno (1901) by Louis
