Fantasy Sonata for Flute & Piano Published by Southern Music Company USA.
The Fantasy Sonata by John Carmichael, edited by Roger Armstrong, is both challenging and romantic. The slow, florid first movement has two motifs that eventually unite toward the end of the movement. A deep chordal accompaniment, with a lyrical melody line on top, lends ($15. Southern Music).

(Carmichael’s) tuneful and poised Fetes Champetres borrows 16th and 17th century French dance forms in a manner akin to Ravel’s Le tombeau de Couperin or Poulenc’s Suite française. The smiling outer movements (‘Passepied’ and ‘Rigaudon’) frame a ‘Berceuse’ of exquisite grace. The Gramophone March 2006

Carmichael’s Latin American Dances for alto saxophone & piano ……… The four dances that comprise the suite are the joropo from Venezuela and Colombia, the habañera from Havana, the rhumba from the Caribbean and the Brazilian jongo. ………. The piano part is vigorous, supportive and idiomatic. Such an attractive suite makes a welcome addition to the saxophone recital repertoire. Emerson Edition
