Kyle MacLeod writes: "When attending a colleague’s violin recital, the moment she began playing the ?rst movement of the Cinq mélodies I fell in love with it. I could hear that it would sit extremely well on the ?ute and I realised there was only a single work by Proko?eff in the ?ute repertoire, Sonata no 2 in D Major op 94. This is also available for violin and piano, rearranged by the composer himself a year after the original publication. Just like the Sonata, we could now have the Cinq mélodies for ?ute or violin with piano accompaniment, providing more Russian music for ?autists to enjoy. My adaptation stays true to the violin arrangement which Proko?eff himself based on his original version for voice and piano. Harmonic ?ngerings have been added to the ?ute part to create rich harmonic effects similar to those produced in the violin part, and double stops have been adapted to monophonic passages as befits the ?ute."
