Flower Duet
:: ''Not to be confused with the "Flower Duet" (''Il cannone del porto!'') from Giacomo Puccini's opera ''Madama Butterfly''
The "Flower Duet" () is a famous duet for sopranos from Léo Delibes' opera ''Lakmé'', first performed in Paris in 1883. The duet takes place in act 1 of the three-act opera, between characters Lakmé, the daughter of a Brahmin priest, and her servant Mallika, as they go to gather flowers by a river.
The duet is frequently used in advertisements and films and is popular as a concert piece. It was adapted for the theme "Aria on air" for the British Airways "face" advertisements of the 1980s by music composers Yanni and Malcolm McLaren. David Usher used a sample of the record in his 2001 song "Black Black Heart."
==Music==
The duet's time signature is ; its key is B major, except for the part "" until "" which is in G major. That part has a slightly faster tempo (=160) than the surrounding lines (=144). The final reprise is in the original key and tempo. A performance takes about six minutes.
