Concerto for Flute, Strings, and Percussion

Concerto for Flute, Strings and Percussion is a 1998 musical composition by Melinda Wagner, who was awarded the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for Music for the work. A concerto for flute and orchestra, it was commissioned by the Westchester Philharmonic Orchestra, who premiered it May 30, 1998,^[1] for flutist and conductor Paul Lustig Dunkel.^[2] The Pulitzer Prize Music Jury found the work notable for the piece's flute solo and integration of the orchestral accompaniment.^[3] Wagner's victory was a unanimous decision by the jury.

Containing strings, percussion, keyboards, celeste, and harp^[3] while omitting brass and woodwinds, the ensemble is similar to that of Bartók's Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta.^[2] The piece contains three movements: sonata-allegro, lullaby, and rondo.^[2]

A piano reduction of the work, published by Theodore Presser Company, was created by Scottish-American composer, Jennifer Margaret Barker.^[4]
