COLIBRI (Hummingbird), for flute and string orchestra, is my first and favorite piece for flute. Hummingbirds migrate annually from Central America to New Jersey for the summer months and then back again, flying thousands of miles. They are the only birds that can move in any direction and hover in the air like bees. There is a family of hummingbirds that return every summer to our backyard, where we put out feeders filled with sweet nectar for them. One day I was sitting on the balcony, talking with professor Oleg Sytianko, from Turku, Finland. He asked me to write something for flute, promising to perform it at the music conservatory. In the same moment, the hummingbirds arrived. Seeing these cheerful little birds, a melody instantly came to mind—a simple melody, but with a special rhythmic pattern. Since then Colibri has been performed by well-known musicians in many countries. It received the highest rating of the American magazine Flute Talk and has won many prizes. Colibri, the hummingbird, has become my talisman.
