One thing you can nearly always be certain of when encountering a composition by the prolific French composer Erik Marchelie, is that the piece will be never less than interesting and more often than not, highly melodic with lovely harmonies.
Colombine does not disappoint in any respect, it has a very «singable« melody line which just sounds like it belongs in a film score and the piece has enough rhythmic variation to keep the interest flowing all the way through. This is a lovely miniature, ideal for the guitarist who performs restaurant work and the like.
The presentation is excellent and would be well in the capabilities of the Intermediate player.
