Coleman Danza De La Mariposa arranged for Solo Flute is a rhythmic and melodic tone poem giving the listener a tour of South America, inspired by the various species of butterflies that inhabit the continent, Full of rich and unique colors, butterflies dance and weave in syncopted rhythms within the work, while alternating between the feel of 3 over 4 throughout. The slower sections pay homage to the beautiful and sorrowful sounds in the style of Yaravi, a Peruvian lament song.
