Marija Esih is another to join the growing ranks of Croatian and female composers, who are adding very likeable and worthwhile pieces to the repertoire for flute and piano. Spring Sonatina is lyrical with a real zing and sparkle. Marija really understands how to write effectively for the flute, as she is both a performer and a teacher, and this work, which was awarded the Second Prize at the USA Music Composition International Competition (June 2021), will make a very good item in a recital programme, or enjoyed by an advanced student as it offers teaching/learning opportunities in both technique and phrasing.
