Derek Charke - Raga Dohara (for double flute quartet)

Composed and performed by Derek Charke. Raga Dohara is not based on an authentic Raga, but rather attempts to create a meditative character. The subtitle for this work is 'Raga Dohara', or Raga Double. There are several instances of 'double' at play: (1) a double flute quartet; (2) even though it's notated in common time, there is a double time feel — both duple and triple rhythms are occurring at the same time throughout the piece; and (3) the second flutes play two notes (by singing and playing at the same time) throughout.
